So far, a reliable cable modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Supports multiple frequencies and channels. This replaced an old cable modem we had, and it seems to be fine with good reviews online. It also supports higher download speeds which we were unable to to take advantage of with the old cable modem.

Can't accurately assess.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only used mine for one week before trading it in for a different brand because of connection issues. Found out latter the problem was the wiring in my home not the modem.

Good but......
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The modem operates great, but.. It was not on Comcast list like the package said. I was on the phone for an hour and actually had a great Comcast rep go the extra mile and made it work

Does as expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this modem so I wouldn't be stuck with a lease fee on my internet bill. Modem does as expected, just provided the MAC address to my internet provider and that's it. Plug and play.

Excellent Buy..!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was able to get this online with SuddenLink Tech in less than 15 minutes, now I have a backup for my rented cable modem should it get struck by lightning in the future.

Working well so far

A great modem that pays for itself
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does what it is supposed to do, which is to access the internet without a rental fee. Even if you have to buy a new one after a year, you still save money.

Works OK. Faster than the old surfboard modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works OK, but I was not able to activate this modem through Comcast's online website. Needed to work with second level tech support before the modem would work. This was Comcast's problem and not the modem.

Love this modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just recently purchased this modem and had some technical issue with comcast. I ended up turning it in for another one. The 2nd router was a charm and have absolutely no issues with it.

Easy setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After purchasing this modem I took it to the cable company to activate. When I got home all I had to do was plug it in and connect to the router and it was working.

BYE TWC
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this so I wouldn't have to pay time warner cable's monthly fee. Easy purchase and easy setup. Just give TWC a call and give them the device MAC ID and you're all set!

Nice visuals.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to tell at a glance that all aspects are connecting as they should. Purchased this unit to replace the unit that came with my cable TV. Getting ready to cut the cable!

Upgrade to older SurfBoard Modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was an upgrade to my older DOCSIS 2.0 SurfBoard modem, as Comcast had been complaining for me to upgrade to 3.0. It was the best reviewed modem on the shelf at the store closest to me. I would have preferred Netgear but that one apparently has very bad firmware issues. So while this one seems to work most of the time, I've experienced a few service drop-outs which were only resolved by power cycling both my modem and router. I'm not sure it is a problem with my service or the modem itself, so at the moment I'm just going to leave an average review. I don't have the highest Comcast service level so I haven't noticed any substantial improvement in speed. Your mileage may vary.

Fast and easy to set up.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this because I was tired of paying Comcast $8 a month for rental. Just wished it came in black.

Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a dependable cable modem and the price can't be beat. Pays for itself in a year if you have TWC.
