    Great Replacement for Comcast Modem

    We had been having problems with the comcast issued modem and decided to get our own. It saves us the rental fee (which paid for it very quickly). This modem has a great range, we can access our wifi from outside. It is easy to lock down so that only we have access. Connecting it wasn't too bad, we did have to call comcast to have them authorize it, but other than that it was easy.

    I have Comcast Xfinity service and this modem works just fine with it. Its difficult to say if its increased the speeds or not considering I haven't used another modem with the same service but based on local friends who have the modem does improve the speeds a bit. Generally the only complaint I have is the blue lights on the modem are extremely bright but that's a minor issue and does not affect performance.

    I installed this on my Spectrum cable internet and it is way faster than the modem they gave me. It was easy to install and it was up and running in 5 minutes. The form is small too which is good.

    Solid, reliable cable modem. Worked out of the box with my Time Warner subscription (and honestly should work with any traditional cable provider - the key words at "Docsis 3.0". Pro tip: Double-check your cable bill to make sure the company removes the monthly rental charge! Rental of things like the set-top box and the cable modem are ridiculously profitable for them; they have an incentive to "forget."

    After renting a modem from the cable company for several years, I finally woke up. They told me what I needed. I went to Best Buy, and actually I bought a modem one step up from what was recommended. This modem works fine, was easy to set up. I've had no issues. Works great. And if band width requirements go up, I'm prepared.

    Got this one to upgrade to 3.0, since Xfinity/Comcast forced me to upgrade from 2.0. Nice fast speeds and so easy to install.

    What's there to say. I did the research online and this was the BEST option that I could get to replace my TWC Modem. It's worked great from day 1 and even though I'm only running 100mbps at my home, it's nice knowing that I could bump up my service to 300mbps and still be able to use it. I would definitely recommend this modem!

    We needed to replace our modem to increase our internet speeds, but our provider wanted to charge $10 a month to rent one from them. We decided to buy a new one instead. This was easy to install, and our speeds have increased. I like that it is slim, and small, so it doesn't take up much space. Great features at a great price.
