Would a different cable modem increase my speed?

I'm getting horrible ping in games. I currently have a full meg cable account.

I'm using the Motorola Surfboard. Are there better modems out there?
 
Probably not. It really depends on you area, and how many other users are online in your area.
 
Generally, you'll see an increase in performance moving from a non-DOCSIS-capable modem to one that supports DOCSIS.

Depending on the model of Surfboard you have, you may already have a DOCSIS-compliant modem.


I've got a SB5100, and find that I get excellent throughput and low latency with it.
