    Got it working initially. The Cable modem would shut down every two hours. Also Xfinity reported that the MAC Address was used once before. What that means that I was buying an item returned by someone else. Not good.

    Worked two months. Had to unplug it several times to keep it working the short time we had it. It finally died and is no longer returnable. Expensive paper weight. Stay away!

    I had this equipment from best buy and had difficulty to connect with the internet. I paid monthly fee of internet subscription without using internet due to the bad modem.

    Not so great experience. Speed drops to < 5Mbps and have to re-boot every day. Looking for a better replacement so i don't have to restart it everyday.

    Died after 6 months. One morning, it started an infinite reboot loop. Reset does not work. It’s basically a $170 paper weight now. Thanks Arris.

    Modem started to drop the signal right after the first couple of months. Tried to troubleshoot it and nothing helped. Not worth the price.
