Summary: Is an extended warranty prudent?

Is the extended warranty a prudent investment?  Since its cost is roughly equal
to one non-warranty repair I am asking the probabilities of 0, 1, or
more than 1 repair being necessary from 1-3 years after purchase.  I
don't have years of experience managing modems from which to draw a 
conclusion, so the opinions of some who have would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
