    Nice modem I would recommend to a friend. Maybe they should shorten the minimum to 10 instead of 40

    DOES NOT WORK WITH XFINITY

    I really wanted this to work. I chose this over the CM1000 (Netgear) because it had a 2 yr. warranty over 1 yr. for the netgear. BIG MISTAKE. Got it all connected fairly easily through Xfinity. Unfortunately, it just would not stay connected to the internet. After several hours on the phone and in chat sessions with Xfinity AND ARRIS could not get this to stop dropping the connection to the internet. So, I picked up the CM1000, hooked it up, and poof, absolute perfect solid connection!! This is how it should work with a brand new top of the line modem. One shouldn't have to spend hours and hours of his weekend to get this to work. Conclusion: If you enjoy speaking to people with foreign accents (Xfinity) that are difficult to understand that have no clue what they are talking about for HOURS on end, then get the SB8200. IF NOT, get the cm1000 and you'll be enjoying your Netflix binge in no time!

    Setup was fairly easy, but performance was not as advertised. Worked with the remote Cox tech support and we were not successful in getting this unit to perform as advertised. He recommended another manufacturer and model and I exchanged this at my local Best Buy and it is performing as advertised.
