Nice 2-n-1 option but lacking in extended Wi-Fi
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 2-n-1 feature is what sold me on this unit, plus it was on sale. I've had it up & running just a under a week shy of 2 months. I have experienced problems with having access to my wi-fi when I have more than 3 items in use at the same time. Either I can't get that 3rd item to connect, or it takes 3-5 minutes to do so. Also the range isn't great. I don't think I have a large house, only 1200 sq. ft., but I find that I can't get any signal at the end of the driveway. There are 2-3 models higher than the one I am using. I wanted to upgrade but the price was very prohibitive when I had just got my unit. I will look into it again later, but for now I'll deal with the lack of and sometimes iffy signal.

Much better than renting a gateway from Comcast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comcast first installed a gateway that could not give me the speed I was paying for, then the second one they bricked trying to speed it up. SO I bought this one from Best Buy and it is perfect!

Make sure that the modem /router works
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased a new modem/router for a new service by Comcast for my vacation cabin. The modem/router that I chose was on the Comcast recommended list. However when the Comcast technician tried to communicate with the new modem it would not connect. we tried for over an hour to establish communication with the modem. Finally gave up and installed the Comcast modem/router provided by Comcast.

Signal is not as strong as my Linksys router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The admin password in the documentation that came with this modem/router was incorrect. You have to go online to their site and then get the correct password. Also the signal does not carry as far as my Linksys stand alone router did. Otherwise I haven't had any problems with it so far, have had it for about 2 months now.

Excellent Performance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Install is simple. Getting your internet provider to activate definitely can be a hassle if you don't have some computer skills, but beats renting one. Been using it for a month now and have had no issues. Not a single reboot! Excellent performance! Easily stream video on three devices at the same time with no lag.

Works great, settup is no hassle free
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this product as a replacement to Netgear C3000 that failed. This one has good reputation, but the reviews are right in the set up: you will have to call your cable provider and connect it... and it takes time and is not plug-and-play at all. If this one works longer than the previous one - which was less than a year, we will be happy with it... and it has 2 yrs warranty!
