This was very easy to install and called my ISP to activate with no problems. It has not failed me yet and no lagging on my devices.

After MUCH research on modems, I decided to purchase the Arris due to features, reviews and most importantly to me, the 2 year warranty. The ease of setting it up was awesome! I am getting better speed than with the old "rented" modem that was costing me $14.00 a month. This baby will pay for itself in 6 months and comes with a 2 year guarantee, so if you're thinking of buying instead of renting.... don't hesitate any longer!

We had both internet and telephone but wanted to get rid of the landline and were told we had to get a new modem for internet only. The cable company wanted to charge us $179 for theirs or we could rent it for $10.99 a month. We checked with our Best But experts and came up with this little gem. It works great if I had one critique the blue lights shine way too bright. I had to put a cloth over them. Other than that it’s perfect!!

Works as expected. The true test is its longevity. For that we'll have to wait and see. It's nice and compact and seems a bit quicker than the old modem.

Dependable, replaced my Xfinity rental with this model 15 years ago, until it fried from a power surge recently. I bought the exact same one again, a lot cheaper than the first time.

I was having trouble with the cable company supplied modem / router so I decided to upgrade. Boy was this an upgrade. I have been using this for about 2 months now and have had no problems since installing this unit. I am now getting the full speed advertised by my cable company and I am using streaming services with absolutely no buffering. Replacing the cable supplied equipment was the best thing I could have done. I paired this with a Linksys EA9500 and have never been happier with my internet and Wi-Fi .. Highly Recommend this unit..

This was recommended by the Best Buy salesperson. I was looking for a more expensive one. He glad I took his advise. This Modem works perfect. My home is 3,000 sq ft and we have over 25 devices connected at one time (up to 36 devices total), haven't had one issue with the modem. FYI: Did also get a 3 pc MESH router - both work great together. Would definitely but this again and recommend it to all.
