    Was tired of renting a modem from internet provider so I researched best cable modems and went with the ARRIS - SURFboard DOCSIS 3.0. Very simple setup. Was up and running in 30 minutes. No issues connecting with provider and will save $132 a year in equipment fees.

    I bought this modem to get away from modem rental costs. Very easy to install. One call to my ISP to activate it and add it to their system had it up and running. Works great with my Netgear N600 wireless router. Fast upload and download speeds. Haven't had any problems with this modem and would recommend it.
