A:AnswerI believe this modem is rated at a max Mbps of 275. So yes, it will work, but you may want to get something with more capacity.
Also check Optimum site for approved modems. I have Xfinity and they have a list of approved devices that will work with their service.
A:AnswerThis is just a dumb modem. It is NOT a modem/router combo which is traditionally called a "Gateway."
With this modem you will need a router.
That router must be plugged into the Ethernet port of the modem.
All internet enabled devices will be able to connect to the internet via the router.
A:AnswerNot entirely, you will need a router as well. What you have from Comcast is a modem/router combo. A modem brings the internet to your residence. A router then disperses the internet to all your devices. The box you have from Comcast does both. You will need this modem as well as a router to replace the Comcast box you rent.
I recently replaced my rented Comcast modem/router with this modem and the router I linked below (good performance, low price). They were easy to set up as well. Getting your own modem and your own router will save you money in the end and you'll have better internet performance. Hope this helps!
A:AnswerIt will work with most of the companies
But it’s only a modem not the router
Either you have to buy modem and router combo or buy this and router separately
