Hot deal for existing Rogers Internet customers & Free Wireless N Router!

[professionaldude]

Nope, that's the portable modem.

What more detail do you want? Pay $100 now, get modem & router - call to activate new modem and return old one = no more modem rental fees, and $100 back to your rogers account in a form of a credit.

So, Is there a web link to that modem? Don't you have to active their service to get the credit $100. I don't see anything about this on Rogers website. I will call Rogers tomorrow and ask about it.

Rogers definetely has something up their sleeve...why would they give you a $100 modem free AND lose $3 per month on the rental?

Picked up the Motorola Surfboard back in '03 i believe, and been saving that rental fee for years.

Can someone link to the modem then! | :O

Not sure if you are thinking the same thing I am, but if you read the thread discussing the free upgrade from 7 to 10 megs (Express to Extreme?), Rogers keeps saying that you need to swap modems despite the fact that it has been confirmed that older modems work fine at the higher speed. Is there perhaps some ulterior motive (more throttling, or just plain spying)? Anybody know if George Noory has weighed in on this?

When I jumped on the 7-10 upgrade deal they tried this on me and I had all the modem specs ready to go (which imply that the modem supports up to 30+ mb WAN throughput). They had already told me long ago that my modem would easily support their 10 mb service. I have had a $40 SB5100 off E-Bay since 2003 or 2004. Once I spoke to one of their "engineers", everything was good to go in under 10 minutes.

I never trust Rogers.... This sounds too good to be true.

[ERIKAAMORRIS]

Just need to know if this is at every FS now......

[pinkbunni]

Which Modem is it? and does it come as a package along with the wireless router, how do I get it for free when online it shows $49.99?

[Mr Al]

I am very suspicious too. Perhaps they have a new modem in the works and they want to screw their customers into buying the old ones.

Does it work with Extreme? and please provide a link to the modem...

Thanks
