Needed a modem

So I went into best buy needing a modem, and this is the one the associate suggested. I was skeptical at first; I'd always been a netgear user, but the associate assured me he was getting well over 100 mbps. Well I hooked it up to my orbi wireless router, and got 117. Far better than I anticipated... thank you for the help! Not only did it surpass my (admittedly low) expectations, but it was relatively inexpensive, given all the alternatives they sell.

I switched from broadband to cable internet. To avoid the monthly equipment rental fee, I purchased this modem and a Norton Core wifi router (after reading many reviews), and I'm thrilled with both. I purchased a 150 Mbps internet plan and I'm getting 176 Mbps download and 25 Mbps upload via wifi! I think the modem is helping, because it will handle up to 1.5 gbps. It also has never failed, nor have I had to reset it. Highly recommended and a good value for the price.

I went to Best Buy to buy a router since ours was old and we had added so many WIFI enabled gadgets that we kept dropping the signal. On the advice of the salesperson I talked to, we also replace the TWC/Spectrum modem with this Arris modem. What a difference!! We used to have to unplug and refresh the old modem once every couple of days because everything would slow down. We've had this Arris for a couple months and haven't had to reboot/refresh it yet!

Went from an older Motorola surfboard to this modem after a friend told me how much faster it made his internet. My router is the nighthawk ac1900.
Well, it more than tripled my download speeds to 192mbps. Nothing else was changed just this modem.
Btw my Comcast says I get speeds up to 150mbps. Well I haven't seen speeds that low since purchasing it. Before the change I was lucky to hit 60mbps.
If you have multiple people or devices on your network, I highly recommend this modem.

I had the older ARRIS SURFboard 6141 for 5+ years. It worked reliably. With everyone working from home I had to increase my internet speeds to more than 300Mbps. Based on my past experience with ARRIS cable modem I went with this 6190 model. It has worked reliably and has consistently given me close to the maximum speeds I chose with my ISP, Comcast. Highly recommend it.

Purchased this modem after our previous one had died. It has done exactly what it expected and more. We are pulling the exact speed we pay for at anytime of day. It was easy to install because there they don’t put excessive ports on the modem and the display up front is super easy to see and understand.

So easy to set up. We set up with xfinity, did everything through the app and did not have to call anyone to get our wifi set up in our new home. App takes you through all the steps and it was so easy, even for someone who has never done anything like this before.

I bought this Arris SURFboard cable modem to replace a previous Arris modem to support the faster 300mbps Internet download speed from my cable provider.
I was looking at others, but have been pleased with Arris in the past with no issues, and this one has been great thus far.
And with 1.5gbps max download capable, this will offer me plenty of years of service, and without having to pay expensive rental fees!
