Anyone who subscribes to Cox and is going to cut the cord for TV but keep internet should get this item. It works with their systems, at least in the south and southeast. It will save you their ridiculous monthly "rental fees" .
cox users should note that if you downgrade from a package that included voice lines, the modem you have from them will stop working once they change the package and you will be dead in the water until you get one of these or they send you a different rental unit.

This my second Motorola modem after 7 years of continuous 24/7 operation. Comcast technician verified seeing the least amount of modem issues with Motorola modems. Easy to set up. Excellent data transfer speeds. Only minor suggestion is for Motorola to add the ability to adjust the brightness of the panel lighting which can be a bit distracting if not concealed we'll.

So far, so good. After extensive research and reviews, I finally decided to go ahead with this router. Never had Arris before, but I am pleased with the product. Easy hookup, user friendly.

I replaced an old Netgear with this cable modem and I have never looked back. This cable modem reconnects quickly and efficiently and I have never had to go in and reset it for any reason.
So worth the money... (FYI on TWC)

We noticed a significant improvement over our old modem. Easy setup too! The only thing we don't like is the blue lights are too bright.

This is the same model (recommended) by my cable provider, and over time it will be cheaper to just buy it rather than pay the monthly rental fee from the cable provider. Performance is amazing, haven't had a problem with it at all.

Easy to set up. Does require an additional router if it is to be wireless. SO be sure to read the box before purchasing as there are some modems that can be wireless on its own. (I already had a router so it didn't matter)

Coming from someone who frequently downloads and streams music and movies, I can attest that this modem has nearly doubled my download speeds. I find that buffering times have been cut by more than half. The biggest noticeable difference to me is the total volume that it's able to support. With my old motorola modem, I found that my speeds would slow down when I had multiple devices hooked up to the internet. Now, I typically have two iPhone 5's, two iPads, my iMac and playstation 3 hooked up at the same time and have no issues.

Who knew you needed to replace your cable modem after a few years? I sure didn't. Oh well. This one does a fine job replacing my aged out piece of technology. It is really fast and I can online game while my wife streams online. Not much to complain about there.
