I am using a Toshiba PCX2200 and it has been an excellent modem, I have not had any trouble, although about once a month it does loose sync, but I think that is probably my provider not the modem. :)

I've been hearing bad things about the linksys modem, but either the motorola or toshiba, they both seem to smoke :) OOL users have found those to be the top 2 performers i.e. constantly hitting the OOL caps. So neither is better then the other, but only when you compare the 2.

I've got the 4200 here. It's good.
Respect it.

I have just bought the 4200 and it works great for me. Other than that can not say much about it yet.
