    Easy to connect and set up, enabled me to maximize the speed I was paying my cable company to provide. Extremely pleased with this project and the results I achieved.

    Bought this modem to work not have to pay Xfinity monthly modem rent. It was an easy set up. I connected the modem, called Xfinity to register and it got installed within 20 mins. I wish it will work with my TimeWarner connection in NY - but the phone subscription throws a kink in that set up.

    Purchased this Comcast approved modem so I would not have to pay Comcast a monthly lease fee of $7.00 Set up was easy. Hooked it up and turned it on and a browser window opened up to Comcast site, it recognized a new modem and asked if I wanted it set up for me. Automatic set up took about 15 minutes and I did not have to call Comcast. So set up was very easy!

    Strong Internet throughout my house. This is the first extender I have ever purchased. The Internet was difficult to get in the lower levels of my house. This makes it strong enough for my son to play his games, my daughters to stream her music as well as playing online.

    I was surprised how easy this modem was us setup and install. I chose it because it is on the approved device list for Comcast and trying to take the easiest route possible....it worked. My only complaint is that the "connectivity" light constantly flashes because my router isn't "fast enough" even though it is much faster than my actual internet speed.... Annoying, but not that big of a deal.

    Modem was easy to set up and to use, once the provider updated the connection. Performance is good and based on prior models of similar Motorola modems, it should outlive its level of technology.

    So far this modem has performed flawlessly giving me 80Mb/s without any hitches. Saves me rental fees on a modem that is less than subpar from the cable company. I have no complaints thus far.
