It was super simple to get set up for me and seems to work fine. Otherwise it's a modem, not much wow factor for modems.

Living in an HOA, we have a discounted rate with our cable tv/internet supplier. However, the modem they supplied us with could not meet our modest demands upon it. We upgraded with this NETGEAR unit and its basically invisible. We're not even conscious of it because it just does its job flawlessly.

It’s a great product in the nighthawk series. When you have anything that is a 2-in-1, such as modem router combos, always keep in mind that it will perform both of those functions well but neither one will be great. As an up and coming IT professional, I always recommend getting a separate modem and router devices for your home network. It will be a large upfront cost, but the performance and longevity will save you money over time.

Works as advertised and now we are finally free of paying the modem rental fees that come with our cable TV provider! To think, we paid $720 over the past 7 years for a modem that we were renting that sells for $50 brand new. Now we are unshackled from the ridiculous fees and our internet got even faster! The setup was almost instantaneous with the longest part being waiting on the phone to provide our ISP with the MAC address to be able to access the internet.

Had an Arris G36 surfboard and due to Comcast's recent security changes it had issues staying connected. I opted for this and it is nothing short of amazing. If you have Xfinity Gigabit service you need this modem cupled with their Nighthawk Router.

If you’re looking to get your own equipment for Xfinity internet this is it. I’m now saving $320 a year and I have a much more user friendly setup. Best Buy had the best price and Recommendations to optimize my purchase. Pair with ASUS - RT-AX82U AX5400 Dual-Band WiFi 6 Router if

It has been good so far. Replaced my other cox modem. Setup was easy. Have had some slight issues with speeds sometimes but I think I need to update my router instead. Overall, pretty good. I would say if you don’t want to splurge with another router you should spend slightly more for the two and one, however I would say do some research.
