Money saved no sacrifice in performance
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good replacement adequate coverage money well spent on equipment as opposed to a donation to the cable company

Great modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Boosted my poor signal thru the roof when compared to the rental modem from Charter. Takes a phone call to your carrier to set up, but that took less than 20 minutes.

Arris surfboard
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Improved old drop problem with WiFi. Price is very reasonable. I did have trouble with tech support from Cox getting this modem enabled, should have been much simpler.

Does its job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In general it does it's job operating silently in the background. The indicator lights are super bright. Lights up the room at night. Would be nice to have a way of dimming them.

Great Product, even tho it was not what we needed.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It turned out we need a modem that was phone capable. So this product was not the product for us. However, we did use it for a week with the NightHawk and had NO problems!

One of the best available
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am with Oceanic Cable on Oahu. Bought this with the intent of using it to take advantage of the 300Mbps service that I was upgraded to. Sadly, Oceanic could not get it to provision. I returned this unit and exchanged it for a Netgear CM 600 which works flawlessly.

Great modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good docsis 3.0 modem 32 downstream channels and 8 upstream. Make sure you tighten your cable connections otherwise you might cause issues with speed and connectivity.

Just works
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty much plug it in and it works. I bought one for my mother in law too, it was that easy. It seems like the best brand and value for a DOCSIS3 modem with gigabit.

Does what it should. Wish it was cheaper.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Expected better performance out of this device than the 8 yr old one it replaced. Old device was a rental from cable company. But it does what it should, and DOCSIS 3.1 s/b supported for a good while into the future

Great modem to add
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can I say I've had it for a few months and I've had no problems whatsoever. I've added it to my redesigned network when I upgraded to a larger Netgear router.

Good unit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Though the instructions are lacking and getting into the setting could be a little easier, it works great. Once you get in and set it up to your specs your done.

Comcast and Arris 6190 Router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall this is a fine router and is typical of the other Motorola based routers in the past. In general though I was under impressed as I moved from a 24 channel to a 32 channel router. My speed was actually slightly less (about 1%) on a Comcast 150M subscription.
