    Easy set up (and I lack modern technology skills). Plenty of range in our single story 2000 square foot home.

    While the setup was generally simple, the fact that my in-laws do not have a smart phone made this terribly convoluted. It resulted in setting up the modem as myself and then go through several adminstration changes to get the account back in their name. Speed, etc, are all acceptable.

    Setting up with Xfinity was easy, then setting up the network with the Surfboard app was smooth. You can set up 2 bands (2.4 and 5) or merge the frequencies for a single band.

    It's a good item, just can't carry the load of a person working from home. Buffers a lot, during TV watching, and my wife's phone calls sometime drop due to low coverage. Then there are days when everything is "perfect"! I believe that COMCAST is monitoring our signal and preventing the service to operate to it's full potential, since they control everything.
