Invisible
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A modem should be a largely invisible component in the network. If you have to deal with it, it is a problem. Thankfully, this one fits the bill - it just works. Replaced a Motorola MB8611 with this after the Motorola device started rebooting several times a day dropping internet connection for 10mins each time.

Quirky to set up with Spectrum
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plugged into my laptop, took forever for the Spectrum activation to appear. Downloaded the app on iphone, which doesn’t do very much apart from give you a product manual. Plugged into my AX86u and then the games began. Got the ‘ISP’s DHCP does not function properly’ error. Set it to auto detect, which failed a couple of times. Set time zone in router and rebooted a couple of times, eventually was successful. I did not see drop in power as others reported, mine actually improved by 1-2 units. I did see a drop in latency from 12ms to 15ms. Accessing the modem, through 192.168.100.1 I had to over-ride on my iphone to allow. No way to clear event log. Was either this model or the MB8611. The S33 on paper has more memory (better buffer capacity), time will tell.

Probably overkill, but this is a fantastic modem
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously had a Motorola Gigabit speed Modem, but even though I had gigabit speed internet from Cox, I wasn't getting the full capability from my wifi. So I decided to upgrade my router and at the same time purchased this modem when it was on sale. Now I get 1200 mbps. Very happy with my purchase.

Best modem for high bandwidth Xfinity plans
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Resolved my connection issues with Comcast-Xfinity that were happening due to the faulty Motorola MB8611 cable modem. This modem has been solid as usual for the Arris brand and can easily support the high bandwidth plans from Comcast.

Arris Surfboard modem..Buy from Best Buy l!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Arris cable modem is a key component of a solid internet system. Works perfectly as advertised. I initially purchased 1st Arris until through Amazon. It was junk, didn’t work and was returned. Save your self headaches and hassle and buy from Best Buy to eliminate risk of buying defective goods.

Very nice modem
