Sorry - I have to be neutral with 3 stars because I have not had a chance to install this yet. It appears a little complicated to do and I have not had the time. Will come back again once I get it installed.Highly recommended by the Best Buy sales person which is why I purchased it. It was also on the recommended list from Xfinity.

I use Ethernet for my computer and I get the speed I'm paying for (200mbps up/20mbps down). As far as Wi Fi goes, it does reach every where in the house with decent speed, but I was hoping it wouldn't be as slow and unreliable in the farthest rooms (my house is not that big).

When my internet installer stated that it was a very good brand and was up-to-date, I knew I chose correctly and was given great advice in store.

I've purchased two of these modem/routers for my family members so they don't have to pay the modem rental fees to the cable company. I have not heard from either of them about having any issues with connectivity. I also have an older model Surfboard that is just a modem and I never have any issues. I trust this brand for it's stability and great products at affordable prices.
