To me, there is little special with any cable modem.  This modem is DOCSIS 3.0 which is the most important feature to know.  I learned from others that the White version is the one you want, the black version is older and perhaps not updated regularly with firmware updates.I strongly encourage users to buy this product as opposed to those that include wireless in the modem itself.  Multi-purpose devices have a tendency to live shorter lives.  I have this device plus a standard router and a Apple Airport Express, which is a great combination for a home network.
