Superb Service and Techical Support
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace former Arris that xFinity told me was the reason for my lack of internet service. Turned our the existing Arris was fine and had not needed replacing. This new one is supposedly even better and certainly works well but we do not place heavy demands on it. The reason for this review is the outstanding tech support I got from Arris in setting up the new one. I thought only Apple and Samsung provided such excellent support. I am now a loyal Arris customer forever.

Almost perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this modem as a temporary replacement for the Comcast modem. Unfortunately, Comcast doesn’t allow a consumer to use two IP addresses which means you can only use one port. 1.4 gigabits down and 44 up. Does run hot when pushed hard.

Arris S33 really does the job.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced the Arris 6240 modem, limiting throughput to mid 240+ MB with the new S33. Now the throughput is very close to 1GB! Setup was a breeze, speedy, and easy. Extremely happy.

Looks matter and looks win!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best modem that I have seen cosmetically appealing: compact, space-ship like, and stylish. Functionally I honestly do not know if it is any better than anything else. But cosmetically it is a winner.

Great modem!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to setup and as long as your cable provider sets the right software, speeds are as advertised. But a word of caution, not all of your devices will be able to use the technology so speeds over 600mbos maybe underutilized.

Top Tier Modem

Excellent modem but still leaves me wanting
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was expecting to get gigabit speeds with this product since we paid for that level of service from Xfinity, but the light on the ethernet port never seems to indicate that we're receiving such speeds; however when I test my internet speed, it is usually just fast (have gotten 'blazing fast' on occassion) depending on which device and how close to a Wi-Fi point I am. Is my problem with Xfinity? Are they allowed to sell me a tier of service that they don't actually provide to my service area? I can't tell where the problem lies. Otherwise, set up was very easy and app interface is simple and efficient. I'm still happy with the purchase.

Arris surfboard modem
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used this to replace Arris 3420 that decided to stop working. It was easy to hook up, called my IP gave the mac# & serial# and within 30 seconds it was up and running. It’s giving us the speed that we signed up for
