    This modem would receive 5 stars if there was a way in settings to dim the front led lights. At night time, annoying how bright they are.

    I purchased so as to no longer lease from the cable company. It works better than the one (1) I was paying $5/month. Would recommend to anyone to do the same.

    This was not my first choice, but due to the limitations of the cable company this was the best that I could use with their service. My advice is to check with your Internet provider before you buy
