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.
