wirecutter says motorola MB7621 for 600Mb plans, netgear CM500 for up to
300Mb plans, and motorola MB8600 for gigabit plans.
I use the 600Mb recommended modem for my 300Mb comcast service on the
theory that I get to use channels which 300Mb modems cannot see, so I have
less resource contention interference, but I've never tried to verify that.
