    Did not work as claimed on spetrum service brand new out of the box. Downlaod capped at 1 to 3 mbps on wired connection and spectrum service agent could not get it working for 300mbps plan. It was concluded as the device problem because another device was working well with simple swap. Bestbuy did not honor retun simply because paased 15 day window. Arris did not honor return simply it was not sold from their website. Avoid this product.

    Did not work with our WiFi provider (Xfinity)

    Did not work as expected. Only allowed our phones to load seemingly random apps. Tried to troubleshoot for an extensive period of time and eventually gave up and returned the device and went with our WiFi provider's modem/router rental (which we were trying to avoid). I didn't see many negative reviews on here so I thought it was important to share our experience.

    Absolutely horrible. Would not pick up a WiFi signal. Had xfinity technician out twice and could not be resolved. Customer service is atrocious. Cannot get through on the phone. Wanted me to pay $1 to ask a question and when I refused the chat was ended. We returned this item. Zero stars. 10/10 do not recommend.

    Horrible, unreliable product. I have to go back to renting Xfinity's modem after losing $130. Non-existent tech support. Save your money.

    Product was awful. Concept is good, but you have to turn the volume up so high to get any sound, there’s too much white noise. Sounds terrible!
