Good product, wish it had been in the store!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Item seems great, but why have a block and morter store at all? I went into a local store to buy, ended up buying it online at the store, then picked up the next day at the store! Seems a bit odd to me.

You get what you pay for, decent value.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You get what you pay for. Cheapest thing out there pretty much for its purpose, but has enough strength to get across a one bedroom apartment. Seems to not like if there is a dishwasher/washing machine in the way though!

Works... Sometimes
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our family has a 200 Mbps plan from Xfinity in the Bay Area California. This modem/router offers a 2.4 GHz band and a 5.0 GHz band. The area of coverage for the 5.0 GHz band is very very weak. You have to be within a direct line of sight to the device in order to attain any connection. The area of coverage for the 2.4 GHz band is better, but still pretty bad. If you're within a direct line of sight to the device then speeds on the "5G" network can be great (100-250 Mbps) and speeds on the 2.4 GHz network are ok (40-60 Mbps). Once you're around a few corners/behinds a few walls/through a door/etc, the connection to the 5G network disappears completely and the 2.4 Ghz network delivers DL speeds between 0.5 Mbps and 10 Mbps. That's right, less than 10 Mbps if I'm in my room which is 30 feet away from the modem/router device (there is a straight hallway between my room and the device).

I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Compatibility
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Either not compatible with Xfinity or defective
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally got it to connect to Xfinity. It gave me less then 1 Mbps down. I took it back and bought a more advance 3.1 DOCSIS modem router that did work. Is it defective or is it no longer compatible with latest protocols?

Quality and cost-effective
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works. Don't know what else to say. If you purchase it, Best Buy will not stop reminding you to review it.

Iffy..
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would be careful. I had this item and it lasted exactly 2 years. But if that is OK, never mind. I ended up buying the Netgear AC1900. We'll see how that one does..??
