Surfboard Modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device corrected our service issues and seemed to increase throughput as the unit it was replacing was several years old. The only negative I have in regard to this model is that there are no mounting slots. So you have to place it on a shelf or use zip ties to hang it on a wall.

new modem

Awesome ambient lighting
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lightning fast router and great ambient lighting. I wouldn't recommend for an open room due to its bright ambient lighting that may annoy you as you sleep. I have mine setup in my master closet.

Modem
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall the modem works well and we haven’t had any issues after having it for about month. However, it has a huge bright light on it which can get super annoying while trying to sleep.
