Why would a brand new modem that advertises DOCSIS 3.1 show DOSIS 3.0 on the status pages? 

Best answer by SURFboard Moderator

The compatibility of the modem with DOCSIS 3.1 or DOCSIS 3.0 standards is contingent upon the Internet Service Provider (ISP) that transmits the signal. This modem is designed to support DOCSIS 3.1 in both directions; therefore, the decision to utilize either standard rests entirely with the service provider, which is responsible for transmitting the signals required for both sending and receiving data connections.
