I was having some issues with my Wi-Fi going down so my ISP sent a tech out to check on things. He fixed an issue with the line coming into my house but he also recommended replacing the modem I was renting with a newer one. This one set up easily and I have been using it for several days now with uninterrupted Wi-Fi and faster speeds too. Very reasonably priced.

Works flawlessly on Optimum (formerly Cablevision). As long as you are not using their Voice service this is a great modem to substitute for the modem that Optimum supplies for a $10 a monthly charge if you are a new customer..

It's been 2 years and is still going strong. This was a recommended modem for Spectrum internet. Hookup was easy and all I had to do was contact Spectrum to activate it.

Subject says it all. This is the caddy of cable modems. Despite line problems that Comcast eventually fixed, the DL & UL throughput of this modem far exceeded my older 2 stream modem. Now that everything on the Comcast network side has finally been fixed, this guy really shows off his stuff. Currently pay for 75Mbps down and 10Mbps up, consistently get 88 down and 12 up. Rock solid stablity...no issues after owning for several months.

After discontinuing a 45 year business relationship with AT&T and switching to Time Warner Cable for my Internet service, I needed a first-rate modem to go along with my Netgear Nighthawk X8 router. This modem was highly recommended by the TWC folks as well.
I have not been disappointed with this modem at all. It has exceeded my expectations.

I didn't want to pay the cable companies a rental fee, so I researched and bought this modem. It works with Optimum Online and it was easy to set up. Plug it in, turn it on, wait for it to load up. With Optimum, you have to turn off the wi-fi on your device and on again to access the login page. Once there, you can type in the account number and register your new modem's MAC address. No problems since.

I bought this to replace the one the cable company was charging us for every month. It was nearly identical to the previously rented one. Pulling it out of the box and swapping the appropriate IDs out with the cable company took almost no time what so ever. I have seen no difference in performance and would recommend this to someone that just needs the converter. If you already have a wireless base station this is the way to go!
