Works with Comcast Blast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I decided to upgrade to 50MB speed with Comcast blast and needed a Docsis 3.0 modem. This was onsale for $79 so it seemed like a good value. Hooked it up with no problems and had Comcast upgrade me. Was getting 57MB download speeds and 11.5 upload but my Vonage service suffered. Working with Comcast we diagnosed that is was a weak cable signal and was getting lots of packet loss. I had to run a line directly to the modem from the outside cable line, without going through any splitters. This fixed my issue and the modem has been great ever since.

Works Fine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does what it needs to do. Dont know much about routers and modems, but better than renting one through the internet company, they're far slower.

Worked perfectly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked perfectly without issues. Not surprising since it was replacing my existing one that was basically the the same model but about 5 years old. Turns out the issue I was having wasn't a modem failure though and I was able to get the older one back up. I guess since I've bought this thing twice now you could say I'm pretty happy with it. Some of the best cable modems on the market.

Great modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this modem alongside my ASUS RT-N66R router. The two work very well together. I have the Comcast Blast! package (50 Mbps down / 10 Mbps up) and consistently speed test at 72 down / 12 up. Given my results, I opted to use this same setup when setting up my mom's home network. She too has had great results. This is an excellent router that is fast and won't be rendered terribly obsolete over the next couple years.

Works for the most part......
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this cable modem to use with Xfinity internet service. Woked well for about 10 days. After 10 days it would no longer bring up internet service. Called Arris support and went through their troubeshootig process. They deemed the unit needed replacing. Took it back to BestBuy and even though I had exceeded the 15 day return policy BestBuy allowed me to exchange it for the same. The new unit woked initially, but it then too started to exhibit intermittent internet drops. This time the modem status lights appeared to indicate the connection was present. Had a Xfinity tech come out. He did some upgrades to the connectors but told me that Xfinity had marked this cable modem end of life with their service. Tech said I needed a DOCSIS 3.1 modem or I'd experience occasional interent failures. The modem works fine when its working. I think my issues are with Xfinity pushing a signal to this modem which the modem does not support and causing the modem grief. DOCIS 3.1 modems are too pricey for my budget at this point so I'm sticking with this for now.

Rated as the best cable modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to have the SB6580 but it would always drop the wifi signal or have connectivity issues through Ethernet, and even overheat. It was a piece of junk. So I "upgraded" to this one and have been good ever since, and have it paired with a Netgear R6220 wifi router. My ISP speed is rated at 100mbps down and 10mbps up but each speed test I do yields 115mbps+ down and 18mbps up.
