Review: This Surfboard SB6 183 has not had a single problem in the time I've owned it (several months). We use it with MAC OS X, Android and whatever Roku uses. We consistently get our plan's rated speed from the cable provider (30 mBps down & 5 mBps up). Once in a while, we get over the speed we pay for (when the cable company goofs) and this modem is more than happy to oblige. Al channels bond all the time, so that's a good thing for maintaining speed. Actually this modem does a better job of maintaining speed in the evening (when the "Netfilx Effect" slows our cable) than the ISP's rental modem. We can still get 30 mBps.) I've never speed checked & got lower than what we pay for. (Good marks for Wowway and Arris) We can surf the innner-tube-web-net while both of our televisions are streaming educational documentaries on PBS. (OK- Chick flicks & monster movies) This modem doesn't even break a sweat- even in the evening. Tech support is excellent. When i first got it, it would not register on Arris' warranty registration page. Apparently it was already registered to someone else & they must have returned it. My call to tech support was answered by a real, live English speaking person in 1 minute. The technician fixed the problem in less than 2 minutes and offered to stay on the phone while I connected it, just in case I had a problem. Cool, huh? Cheerful guy, too. Connecting it was simple. All I had to do was call the ISP and they did the rest. They could see that it was registered to someone else and Arris fixed it. Once I reached a person at the ISP (20 minutes), provisioning it took about 3 minutes. Simple! The provider is Wide Open West (Also called "Wow" or "Wowway") I did have a problem with setting the Energy Saving feature. The manual's procedure didn't match what the screen said. I wrote to tech support. About an hour later I got a reply. One has to unhook it from the ISP to set this feature. The manual skipped that part. Oh well! Later, I wanted to re-boot it for a test in case the power ever goes out. It would not re-boot, following the manual's procedure. I called tech support. One minute later, a person came on the phone. He said to unhook it from the ISP cable to re-boot it. (Again- Excellent tech support. Crummy manual, however). Note that when we have had power failures, it does re-connect to the ISP with no intervention on my part. I gusee you only have to unhook the ISP cable if you are doing a software re-boot. The actual device runs cool. Very cool actually. This is probably because of two things: The venting pattern and the fact that the power supply is not inside the device. This is good & helps the circuitry run cooler. Actually, since the power supply is a (little) brick- and the brick is outside, it runs cooler too. (And can be replaced wth a generic if needed.) It plays well with my TP-Link Archer C7-AC 1750 router. There are no family feuds between them. Report Card: Performance = A+ Reliability = A+ Easy Of Connecting = B (Only because of the registration problem) Temperature = A+ Compatibility = A+ Tech Support By Phone = A+ Tech Support By E-Mail = A+ User Manual = It's Off To Summer School for Those Writers. Personally, if this ever needs replacing, I will buy Arris again. And, I will buy it on desertcart. Why desertcart? They helped me out when the first one I bought (from a private seller on desertcart) turned out to be second hand and, per Arris, possibly bootleg. (So much for cheaping-out & not buying from desertcart...) So, I do highly recommend this device. If it ever messes up & Arris can't help out, I'll update this review. Review: I was in an all-out panic when my cable company permanently deactivated my modem and declared it "end of line". ARRIS came to the rescue! In the past, I've always run into problems activating a new modem. This sets up like a dream and performs flawlessly. I'll sleep well tonight! ## Features - Item Category: Modem - Item Trademark: GENERIC - Manufacturer: Generic ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01ERK1JLM | | Brand | ARRIS | | Color | White | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Connectivity Technology | Ethernet, Wi-Fi | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (1,802) | | Data Transfer Rate | 400 Megabits Per Second | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 2 Years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00612572209929 | | Internet Service Provider | Xfinity, Cox, Spectrum | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Maximum Downstream Data Transfer Rate | 686 Megabits Per Second | | Maximum Upstream Data Transfer Rate | 400 Megabits Per Second | | Modem Type | Cable | | Number of Ethernet Ports | 1 | | Number of Ports | 1 | | UPC | 612572209929 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ARRIS - **Colour:** White - **Compatible devices:** Personal Computer - **Connectivity technology:** Ethernet, Wi-Fi - **Internet service provider:** Xfinity, Cox, Spectrum ## Images ![ARRIS ARRIS SURFboard SB6183-RB 16x4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem, (Certified Refurbished)-White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51PbjvN726L.jpg) ![ARRIS ARRIS SURFboard SB6183-RB 16x4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem, (Certified Refurbished)-White - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Rr33moH5L.jpg) ![ARRIS ARRIS SURFboard SB6183-RB 16x4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem, (Certified Refurbished)-White - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61snsCsaxIL.jpg) ![ARRIS ARRIS SURFboard SB6183-RB 16x4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem, (Certified Refurbished)-White - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tlbcTWHPL.jpg) ![ARRIS ARRIS SURFboard SB6183-RB 16x4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem, (Certified Refurbished)-White - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-ZJHYbkAL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by P***B on 28 June 2019* This Surfboard SB6 183 has not had a single problem in the time I've owned it (several months).

ARRIS came to the rescue! In the past, I've always run into problems activating a new modem. This sets up like a dream and performs flawlessly. I'll sleep well tonight! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by T***. on 13 April 2019* Bottom line; Arris SB6183 refurbished modem and seller 5 stars. Optimum (ISP) Technical Support 0 Stars. Got modem to work and looking forward to saving monthly rental fees + tax. Seller was very responsive to my questions and concerns about MAC being blocked due to modem being used/refurbished. Notes from my experience for Optimum users: I have Optimum as my ISP and the 100 MB/s plan. Optimum online automated assistant said most DOCSIS 3.0 modems should work but Optimum Technical Support would only confirm a 3-4 models that are listed on their website- all seem to be older and expensive models with voice support which I don't need. Optimum Technical Support refused to confirm that this modem or or any other model not on the list was compatible. I took a chance and gave it a shot. Had to call in to register new device (MAC address). I disconnected the router from the modem as suggested in various reviews and connected my laptop via ethernet cable directly to modem. Powered on Modem and after a few minutes all 4 lights lit up solid and I was able to connect to the internet - but alas, it stopped working after a few minutes. Optimum trouble shooter would pop up and keep asking me check ethernet cable and reboot modem and router. After another futile chat with Optimum Tech support. I decided to wait it out and rebooted the modem 2-3 more times. Eventually it worked. My guess is that the first couple of reboots were legit and after that the system took some time complete the registration process and recognize the modem. After about 45 minutes it stopped disconnecting and would consistently connect to the internet. At this point I switched the ethernet cable from my laptop to the router and we were back in business with all wifi devices working as before. Speed test on laptop on wifi Old ISP provided modem ~100 Mb/s download and ~30 Mb/s upload in line with the 100 Mbps plan I have. New SB6183 modem ~116 Mb/s download and ~35 Mb/s upload. So bottom line success! Next project upgrade ISP provided router! Note: This modem has no wifi built it. Better to have separate modem and router. ## Frequently Bought Together - ARRIS (SB6183-RB) Cable Modem - Fast DOCSIS 3.0 16x4 Gigabit WiFi, For Comcast Xfinity, Cox, Spectrum and more, 1 Gbps Port, 400 Mbps Max Internet Speed, 2 Year Warranty - Renewed - TP-Link AC1200 WiFi Router (Archer A54) - Dual Band Wireless Internet Router, 4 x 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet Ports, Supports Guest WiFi, Access Point Mode, IPv6 and Parental Controls - Cat 8 Ethernet Cable, 1.5Ft 3Ft 6Ft 10Ft 15Ft 20Ft 30Ft 40Ft 50Ft 60Ft 100Ft Heavy Duty High Speed Internet Network Cable, Professional LAN Cable Shielded in Wall, Indoor&Outdoor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/410595405-arris-arris-surfboard-sb6183-rb-16x4-docsis-3-0-cable](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/410595405-arris-arris-surfboard-sb6183-rb-16x4-docsis-3-0-cable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
