    I bought this modem to replace an older Surfboard modem I had for years. I was hoping that with the DOCSIS 3 modem, I'd get better speeds out of my cable internet, but it only increased the speeds marginally. I'm keeping it because it's good for even faster speeds, which I might increase to when I move into a house, but for now it's just average for me.

    Bought to replace the one our cable company provided. No more issues with our signal, or plugging and unplugging the modem and router.

    Comcast has updated their internet packages and told me the router that I was using was outdated and recommended on like this one that I purchased..So far the modem is working perfectly..The high speed works on all my devices that require internet without any lag in performance.

    In my opinion since setting up a wireless device can be sometimes a challenge, this product lacks of instructions on how to connect it to a cable internet provider and it took research and a lot of time to finally get it running with my ISP. Considering that homes currently have multiple wireless devices -including printers- more information or at least links to set up configuration would be appreciated.
