I went to upgrade my modem and bought a brand new Arris Surfbord DOCSIS SB 6190 to replace my old modem only to discover when I got home that I had bought the exact one again-same exact product with same model number. I know this is a dumb question but am I to assume that because what I just bought at Walmart is new that it’s components inside WILL in fact be an upgrade since it’s a new one? I mean when you replace a modem you want the latest technology and components. 

Nope. it should be the same thing. 

I’d return it and go with something Docsis 3.1. 

Many isp’s are pushing users to upgrade from 3.0 to 3.1. 

 


Since you had purchased sb6190 which is a cable modem 3.0 DOCSIS once again,  but the components will be the same , but if you are looking for a latest technology we would suggest to go for  3.1 DOCSIS modem for more information of the Product Specifications and Description visit our surfboard.com .
