HT1100 Upgrade To Gen5 Questions

Is it still possible to upgrade to Gen5 and keep our current HT1100 modem? If yes, what all does this entail, and what costs would be associated with such an upgrade? We're currently on the Gen4 10G...

    Good morning cybo54,

     

    Thanks for reaching out. As maratsade mentioned, you will get a HT2000w when you upgrade to Gen 5. The new modem is $150 MSRP, but we provide it for free for upgrades.

     

    Technically the HT1000 can work with Gen 5, but we suggest using the HT2000w, as it is optimized to work with the Gen 5 technology; might as well use it since we send it to you anyway.

     

    Please check your private messages (PM) in the top right corner of the community page as I've sent you a PM to further address your concerns.

Hi cybo54,

 

Since you're a purchase customer, there would be no lease fees for your HT2000w.

 

Only Gen 3 or other legacy customers would require a truck roll if they upgrade to Gen 5. I've sent you a follow up PM as well.
