    The modem has been giving me all sorts of issues since I bought it less than a month ago. Either 2.4 GHZ or 5 GHZ wifi band stops working while the other works and so does wired connection. Then the modem management website has issues where it does not allow you to login. I have factory reset the modem 4 times in last 5 days. After that one can login first time into the management website, but not after that. Customer support is very poor. Everytime I contact them the first thing they say is reset the modem. Me and my wife work from home and our kid takes college classes online. We can't keep power cycling the modem 2-3 times a day. I would not recommend the product to even my enemy. Stay away.

    Does not work well with Xfinity. Connections through Ethernet or Wi-Fi is extremely unstable and loses connection frequently. Had to power cycle daily, sometimes multiple times in one day. This is after a painful setup process.

    This modem is horrible. It drops like 5x a day. Total waste of money. Now I have to figure out if I should deal with restarting my modem everyday, or fork out more money for a new one!

    I have returned this modem because it keeps on dropping my internet connection specially if you have nest door bell cam. The nest cam does not automatically reconnect to the internet connection.
