Simple to install. Works exactly as advertised. Went with this unit because it integrated well with my WIFI router from the same manufacturer, and because it has excellent performance spec's for the price. This unit replaced the "best availalble" cable company leased modem. Noticed immediate and significant performance improvement over the leased modem. Significantly faster data upload and download times. The modest purchase price of this unit will be quickly offset by the eliminated lease charges, but the real benefit for me was the performance improvement. Would definitely recommend this unit to others. And the Best Buy pricing on this unit was the absolute lowest I found anywhere, including internet-based options

This was my third modem attempt after trying to Arris brand Surfboard modems. I have Optimum Online and the tech on the phone said the new surfboards were giving them problems but some customers have success with Netgear. I went to Best Buy and the box for the Netgear actually listed Cablevision/Optimum as a working network. I couldn't be happier. I pay for 200Mbps and I have speed tested at 205Mbps with my PC, wireless AC no less. Highly recommended!

Pretty reliable modem, and affordable. Have been using it for 2 years without any significant issue. Within the first year, it sometimes needed to be reset to help the internet connection if it was lagging, but since paring with a new router that doesn't seem to arise any more. The product tends to be hot to the touch during use.

This modem is perfect for working with optimum, just call optimum customer service and it works perfectly.

This motem is fast, reliable, and really easy to set up.
