Rating:  - not very good; had less than a year and have to replace
Repair man had to come out... says modem is shot... have to buy another one. He recommends Motorola or Linksys... No more D-Link for me!
Rating: - Don't buy it, connection dropped constently!
I own several D-Link products, including router, printserver, and USB hub, they work pretty well, since D-Link's good reputation, I purchased this DCM-202 cable modem for my new cable internet installation, it worked for a few hours, then the connection started to drop constently every 3-4 hours, especially when downloading big files and causing heavy downstream traffic. I had to reset it when connection was dropped. I have read several reviews about the connection drop issue before I bought it, I still gave it a try, it really disapppoited me. I think D-Link makes good networking products, but not this cable modem. I will get a Motorola Cable modem to replace this D-Link DCM-202. If you are looking for a cable modem, it's better not to try this one, don't waste you time.
Rating:  - Simple setup and works fine
The D-Link DCM-202 is just a cable modem, i.e., a mature technology product. It is compact, attractive, and supported by my cable ISP, Cox Communications. Other than the call to Cox to authorize it on their network, the setup couldn't be easier. Plug it in and wait about 20 seconds. It works.
Rating:  - Easy
It works with Cox... only needed to give them my MAC address and I was up and running in no time. No complaints for the frist few days. I'll update if I have issues later. Running with a Netgear router over Ethernet, no issues. Bought because I love my Dlink NAS, and I've known lots of people have issues with the Cox-reccommended Motorola modems.

I purchased this modem new and installed it by following the instructions on the quick setup card. I contacted my cable internet provider (Comcast) with the MAC address and after they did their thing it has been up and running. I am also using a D-link wireless router and a Motorola Vonage device for phone service via Vonage. Everything has been working perfectly since day 1.
