The service tech had not issues and everything seems to be running. Every once and a while I get a message that connection is low but, it never shuts down.

Works well most of the time-not sure if my internet drops because of the provider or the product-I have to reset at least once a week.

We bought this modem for my elderly parents after having a hard time with the cable provider. So far it has worked excellent and they finally have reliable service.

Comcast couldn't route a signal through it even with a tech coming out to try. Of course their own router worked but this was supposed to be compatible with Comcast so pretty disappointed for the money I had dropped on it. Returned it since it wasn't of any use.

I purchased another brand and had continued problems even though it was just as expensive. So glad this one has paid off.

I spent HOURS on the phone with Comcast and Arris--including going back and forth between the two--trying to get this product programmed to work with Comcast. No one at either company could do it. I have it on good authority--from a very reputable computer repair company--that Comcast does this on purpose--refrains from syncing the their cable service with the Arris product THEY RECOMMEND--so you'll rent a modem/router from them at BIG BUCKS. It was a very unnerving and uncomfortable experience. I regret very much switching to Comcast. Ended up having to return the Arris product and (sigh!) renting from Comcast.
