Not a good buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product was functioning ok ant first, but the connection was poor. On Aug. 20, 2023, all of a sudden it stopped working. The Wi-Fi would say connected on my phone, but it wouldn’t connect any of the devices. I have since went back to the Xfinity X1 and everything functions perfectly.

good modem
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hardest part of setting up was answering more security questions for tech support with ISP than what is needed to talk to their billing.

Good signal, steady.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not terribly technical, so the tech on the phone was great - didn't talk down to me or make me feel stupid! Once I understood what to do, it was easy to install.

Nice upgrade to older model
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.More channels equals more traffic capacity. Replaced modem with only half the channels and slower processor. Different color status LEDs on the front panel is a nice touch.

An excellent modem
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No idea why I have been paying Xfinity for all these years. $14 per month = $168 per year times so many years...and this one is a much better quality too.

Own, don’t rent!
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s better to own your router than it is to pay rental on it every month, plus you can purchase a fast and better router than your service provider gives you.

Excellent Modem

This one fit my needs, and the network is running faster and smoother than ever. Very satisfied!

Nothing Special
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this modem based on one of the sales reps at the store expecting better performance with my network. I pay for the max bandwidth of 300 Mbps and was told this modem will perform better than the one that is provided by my cable provider. After using the product for a couple of weeks, I noticed slower speeds and reconnected the one from my cable provider which is not charging me for a rental fee. I have heard there is a replacement/upgrade model that has been released but the technology from cable providers do not support the newer modem from ARRIS which is the SB8200. Perhaps this modem would be good for someone not running high speeds and is paying a fee to rent their modem. I will be installing a more advanced system based on Magnolia's suggestion. A Luxul XBR-4500 or soon to be released 5000 model with an access point for optimum performance.

Great Comcast Replacement
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this modem as a replacement for the Comcast Xfinity Modem that we were being charged for monthly. This is worth the investment. The range is also better in our home.
