To make your decision easier when choosing a modem, three categories of modems exist. Presented below, the recommended Breezeline approved modems (categorized by DOCSIS 3.1 and WiFi).
Read the Cable Modem Buying Guide to help you choose a modem. Do not forget to purchase your modem accessories.
Fiber customers must rent an internet device from Breezeline. You may not purchase your own fiber modem.
The following modems are not compatible with Breezeline: NETGEAR C6300v2 and any eMTA (cable modem and telephone combo device).
Internet providers have begun removing some DOCSIS 3.0 modems from their networks. To maximize the years of use from a modem, it is strongly recommended to purchase a DOCSIS 3.1 device (the latest standard).
