So glad to have lightning fast internet once again! My previous modem was about 3 years old and fading quickly so very pleased to be able to use the internet at an even faster speed than ever before and to do so reliably.
Also, this was a very easy setup with Comcast. They walked me through the installation which maybe took about 10 minutes at the most!

I purchased this modem because Comcast said I needed to do so. Set up was quite easy and I was up and running in a matter of minutes. If Comcast is happy, I guess I’m happy, too! The modem seems to work just fine. I had purchased an eero system within the past year, and the two systems seem to work well together.

So far I'm happy with this. I upgraded my previous SURFBoard (6140?) to this because I upgraded to COX gigablast. I like that it has two ethernet ports. It also supports using both ethernet ports into your router for faster connection. I like the ARRIS because its small and compact and can fit into my network cabinet. I get the full 1000Mbps from COX with this.

I bought this since my older modem and router combination was not giving enough speed though my plan was for 100mbps. I was hardly getting 20mbps sometimes. Moving to this new DOCSIS 3.1 which as per xfinity is the latest supported technology, I could see consistent speed. I also backed up this purchase with a high configuration wifi router (from Bestbuy) and so both did the job.

I’ve had this modem for years. It’s hands down the best I’ve ever had. I recently bought a new one because Cox told me it went bad. Come to find out it works perfectly fine still. The Cox guy just didn’t know how to do his job.
