Not a fully baked product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This router/modem works well when it works with fast speeds and good strong connection. However, there is a reported issue with Xfinity and Arris that disconnects devices because of internal wifi lane congestion. This happens about once or twice a day and I have to reboot the router to get everything working again. They are supposedly working on a firmware fix but it has not come out yet to resolve this issue. I will be looking for other options.

Works when it wants to
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you've never set up an Arris model before, be prepared to spend some extra time figuring out how. Instructions are not as user friendly as previous/cheaper models as I assume people would gravitate towards the cheaper product. I bought this because it was supposed to be compatible with my xfinity high speed internet. It was noticeably faster but only works when it wants to. The Wi-Fi cuts out too many times which was inhibiting me from working at home. I was not able to stream movies sometimes. Once I switched back to my older arris modem and xfinity modem, it worked fine. Not worth the headache and money. I shouldn't have to call for support. For that amount of money, it should be plugged in and ready to go after set up.

I have to call Cox to get it installed.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use Cox, I have to call them to get it installed. They don't have this model in their installation list. They helped me over the phone for more than an hour. On the first day it was not working. On the second day, it automatically worked.

Great modem, high speeds!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this modem for a while now and have been happy with it's performance. The price was great compared to other products out there with similar capabilities/maximum speeds. Seems this modem should support speed upgrades for at least a few years ahead.

Quick and Easy Installation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This surfboard was easy to set up thanks to the Arris app. I was up and running—even with my ISP’s assistance—in less than 45 minutes. And I’m not computer savvy! Only my old printer needed a nudge to connect wirelessly; every other device quickly picked up the connection. I have checked the app every day since the installation and all devices are still connected to the Internet.

Pretty good!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great. Had to contact Xfinity to help me set it up. Wasn’t able to do it myself. So far, so good. I’d give it a 5 except I don’t know how it will work long term.

Arris SurfBoard

Waste of money! CS is a joke!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked fine for about 8 months and then suddenly my speeds dropped randomly and lost internet connection all the time. I contacted Xfinity dozens of time and even had a tech come out and we tested literally everything and it was this modem that was causing all of the problems. The app is a joke and constantly forgets all of your information. The company is an even bigger joke. good luck getting any help if you need it. the best you will get is a forum where they tell you to reset the router and unplug and plug it back in. DO NOT BUY THIS. They do literally anything to get out of honoring your warranty. A complete waste of money and it costs a lot!!!

It’s a Modem and a Router
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replacement for my old modem which was no longer supported by Cox. Mistakenly purchased thinking this was just a modem. It is a Modem /Router. By the time I figured it out it was too late to return it. Hooked it up anyway and plugged in the Google home router and turned of the built in Router. Works good, but I’m sure I would have saved some money if it was only a modem.
