The hardware involved in adding WiFi to a product these days is only a couple of dollars in the volumes HN would buy. For comparison hobbyists can buy WiFi modules for $7 for 1 piece. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13678 So I wouldn't expect a non-WiFi modem to be much cheaper than the WiFi counterpart.

I also want to give a big thumbs down for the new status meter. I've got my kids (10 and 13) trained to use to old status meter to monitor our usage, now that information is obscured in the new status meter. Fortunately I still have a copy of the old status meter and will stick with that for as long as possible.

The power ratings on the label of a power brick are the ratings that were used when the power supply was tested by UL for safety. They may or may not have anything to do with the actual power draw of the modem. The reason for the higher input power rating, other than the efficiency loss of the circuit, is that UL requires the unit remain safe during fault conditions, such as a shorted output or a component failure within the power supply. Under these conditions the current draw can be higher, than under normal operating conditions. Anyway, as I sit here typing this my Killawatt meter on my HT1100 modem shows it is drawing 23W at 120V input.

This started to download while I was working on my laptop today. I jumped and yanked out the ethernet cord. Tried the registry hack that supposedly changes a wired ethernet connection to a metered connection and it still kept trying to download. I had to turn on the wifi and set that to a metered connection to get it to stop. I know what I'll be doing 5AM tomorrow. 🙂

How does it compare to your cell phone plan, if you have one? I had the option of either using a wireless hotspot, or going with HN. I couldn't afford the data costs of wireless so I went with HN and have been happy with the service so far.

You may want to check your cables too. I was having what I thought was a problem with the modem and it turned out the cable from my modem to my router was bad.
