Did not work
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Great buy if range doesn't matter
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as well as the one I had but not great range. Barely goes upstairs. I don't see any difference between this and the wifi router provided by my ISP. Recommended if you don't already have a wifi router

Admin interface is bad
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Average. The admin control panel is the worst I have ever seen and used. It is glitched and lags 100% of the time. The mobile application is useless. Does not work as intended. The speeds were "average" compared to the rental modem from Cox. That is why I returned it.

Incompatible with Comcast--though they said it was
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
