Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the ease of use, strong performance, and compact size of the SURFboard AC1600 Dual-Band Router with DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem. Many appreciate its good price and reliable WiFi, while also noting strong signal strength and good coverage. However, some users experienced intermittent connection issues. A few also mentioned that the device runs warm and has a limited number of Ethernet ports.

    Works great when connected, seems to "timeout" at least once or twice a week.

    I bought this and had best buy install at a cost 0f $78. Best buy rep said he did not have to contact Comcast this time. He was wrong. I had no internet. I contacted Comcast and the registered the product. Also best buy said I was scheduled and I was not so that took a week even before this. Now my internet fails. Comcast has been out and I called, called Arris 10 times and contact best buy geek squad who said for an addition $99 they would come out. So I paid for Comcast and best buy and still after 15 min. all fails. Best buy said they would support it but I guess for $78 I was wrong. Never buy this product or buy best buy support.

    If I could give this product 0 stars I would, do not waste your time or money on this product. It only allowed me to connect 2 devices at a time. Ended up exchanging it for a Netgear router/modem that actually works
