Mediocore WiFi Modem/Router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unsure what to think... My internet is sluggish, don't know if it the modem/router, laptop or comcast. Hmmm...maybe it's a combination of all 3,idk.

Garbage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded my 3 year old modem and router to this based on recommendation at work. There was very little improvement in signal strength and for whatever reason I could not connect various devices to it. Then items I did have connected would then not be able to connect. Very frustrating. Took it back and bought Google Onhub, waaaay better!! Thanks Best Buy for returning my Arris surfboard.

Great Modem, With Some Excepions

I doubt they sell this anymore
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So the blue shirt told me not to buy this. But it was cheap and I didn’t do a whole lot at home... except watch Netflix... and for that it sucks. It’s only good for checking your emails. And even then, don’t have too many people trying to check their emails. I should have listened to the Best Buy employee, they know their stuff.
