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.

    I've had this gateway over a year and it drops out, reboots a lot with Comcast. 5ghz doesn't reach upstairs. When it works, its fast. Tech support on the phone is good from Arris. Email support is bad. Settings are confusing, i feel like i need a degree in IT networking. Ethernet cable connected to tv has to be unplugged and plugged back in.

    Loaded up automatically, works much faster and better than the standard cable company box with its rental costs!

    I purchased this nearly a year ago and I love it. The range is all the way out to my parking lot and I am glad I bought the best one they had in store. I highly recommend this product.

    I read reviews, and have a Arris router I use myself, before I purchased this as a gift for my brother's B & B. He was very appreciative of the gift, so that he wouldn't have to continue paying monthly rent for his modem/router. Unfortunately, it couldn't accommodate his telephone line, which was part of his deal with Comcast/Infinity, so he had to return it to get the more powerful and versatile combo device. There were no problems doing that though, thankfully.

    All around solid product, this cable modem with built in router is low in price but high in satisfaction. With the money saved by not leasing it will pay for itself in just a few short months.

    I bought this to avoid paying the $12 xfinity rental fee for their modem. It wasn't hard at all to install and since I had a small home it did the trick. I have since moved into a bigger home and had to upgrade since the wifi did not reach the entire home and this little guy couldn't keep up. I still have it in case a family member might need one, but I would highly recommend.

    I returned NETGEAR CM400-100NAS. Definitely worth every dimes. Netgear only run 50mps max, when I have 70mps max from Xfinity. Currently I have 80mps for wifi speed and 86mps with cable in.
