Great quality definitely was worth the money. We had to return it because it was no longer compatible with our internet provider.

I previously had a Motorola brand modem and had trouble with it resetting itself almost every hour at random. I bought this modem because it was recommended to work well with Optimum internet as the provider from a review I read online. Since I bought this modem I have not had any issues. I have it paired with a Google mesh system and have been very happy.

Modem is working perfectly!! I've been using Arris products for over a decade and they've never failed me. I purchased this one from BestBuy at a great price and it's been just what I needed to replace my client's ISP gateway rental.

Don't pay Comcast to rent a Modem. In a year you save the cost of renting. Anything past that is extra money you don't have to spend. If you have trouble connecting, make sure Comcast has the right mac address for the modem. I went thru the walled garden and it was still trying to connect to my old modem. The base level tech didn't catch this. I insisted she bump me up to the next level and he caught that. Entered the proper information and it connected. If you can reach the Walled Garden, most likely you don't need them to roll a truck.

I recently upgraded our entire home network to Ubiquiti equipment. Buy once, cry once. Once that was complete, I opted to upgrade my modem to future proof everything (DOCSIS 3.0 to 3.1) and hopefully correct an intermittent buffering issue that I was still experiencing on Ethernet connected TVs . So far so good. Issue has not returned. Works well with Antietam Broadband but you will only use port 1 for the LAN ports. Speed tests seem to be always close to capacity. So far I am happy with my purchase.

So much faster than my old modem. This brand is reliable and would buy again in the future. Had the older version too.
