    It makes the magical WiFi fairies appear. Can’t ask for more than that. The blue lights are blindingly bright but it sure beats paying for one from your provider.

    Replaced the leased one that we were getting from Comcast with this surfboard and a Netgear router. We now have 5g wifi in every room in the house. Hallelujah!

    I see a lot more bandwidth with this modem over the one provided by my ISP. Plus, i have the ability to move up my plan in the future of needed. Comparing the lease total price over the contract and buying my own, saved over $40. Glad I bought this modem.

    I had an older Netgear router. I was long overdue for an upgrade. I bought this along with a mesh system, and we are having no trouble with spotty coverage. All our devices connect easily. Very happy with this purchase.

    Why pay the Cable company to rent a Modem when The Arris surfboard does the same job and pays for it self in 7 months.. Notice no difference in operation or speed from the rented unit.

    Used this in conjunction with a NETGEAR - Wireless-AC1750 Dual-Band Gigabit Router with 4-Port Ethernet Switch - Black after dealing with Comcast all-in-one router. Fixed my signal strength issues and NAT issues with their router. Just plug in and go.

    We got this modem along with a new router for my parents to replace their old Comcast modem/router combo. It saved them the rental fee to Comcast and was a big upgrade, works great!

    I bought this after reading reviews and I'm very happy I did. At peak times during the day my internet would slow down to the point where I could not stream a simple 10 second clip without the video pausing to continue loading. No more. Great purchase
