Ditch the Xfinity gateway for speed, reliability
I only wish that I had made the switch sooner, for the first time I am actually getting what I paid for in regards to my Internet speed, to tell you the truth it seems to be a little bit faster. I haven't needed to reset or reboot my modem yet since I changed over from the Xfinity gateway. I am a paralyzed veteran so my whole house is smart and I really rely on technology, previously I was resetting xfinitys Gateway three times a day just to get my plan speed or so that it would actually work. Now I am no longer paying Xfinity rent for a piece of junk that doesn't work. The speed from this modem and my wireless router together absolutely crush what I was getting before. I have had zero issues I totally recommend making the switch, you have to remember if you have a voice plan you need to get a modem with voice or you will lose your deal even if you do not use the phone. This is the obvious choice.

Easy Purchase with Great Trade-in
When Comcast informed me that my Arris 25 modem could no longer handle the faster download speeds that my system is now capable of, I jumped on the deal to purchase this recommended modem along with a generous trade-in on the old Arris 25. The transaction was handled smoothly by the Best Buy staff. In addition, the interest-free financing is a nice touch. Thanks!

Modem setup went smoothly. Excellent speed and connectivity. It is approved by Comcast/Xfinity which can be helpful if they are your provider.
