I'm currently renting a Ubee modem from Comcast for $7/mo. Does it make sense financially to go buy a new modem or is renting one a better option? Is there a particular make/model that you guys can recommend?
I just rent theirs. Average modem is $60 is, so you are at almost a year before you break even. Jus tnot having to call in the help desk to tell them the MAC of your new modem is worth it to me.

In the 3-4 years I've lived here Comcast has replaced my modem no less than 7 times. To me the rent is worth it.It vary.
In many case if there is a problem and the Interent connetion does not work ISPs will refuse provide free support to resolve the proble,.
As s a result resuming the service will cost you more than what ever you saved on the rental.
Find out what your specific ISP's TOS is.
