A modem will only get you so far for speeds, you also need an ISP (Internet Service Provider) that has the capability to offer you the speeds needed to take advantage with this gear. This modem will allow you to do this. I utilize this with Xfinity's service and it works perfectly giving me the speeds that I pay for.

Great modem lasted 3yrs for me and I had the warranty with Best Buy so I upgraded but easy to set up and never had a problem. Just remember to call your provider for the modem info

I recently updated my Comcast subscription and they informed me I would be getting up to 300Mbps. I reset my current network interface, but Speedtest.net would only report a speed of a maximum of 152 Mbps. After speaking with a tech, I purchased this interface. After installing it (and registering it with Comcast), Speedtest.net reported 310 Mbps.

I was skeptical at first and a bit afraid to own my own modem. But after activating with spectrum customer service I haven’t had any trouble and the connection speed is what I pay for. 1 gig = 1 gig

This my second Arris after the first was electrified by a series of power surges. Performance is top notch and connectivity is a snap. Ditch the cable provider's equipment for better performance and greater reliability.

Arris Surfboard - I bought the Cable Modem for our home computing needs. We previously had Arris and my husband wanted to use the same brand. He was able to set up and connect our system with little efforts. He was very pleased with the purchase and the service received.

Holy Smoke, what an upgrade. I had the SB6183 and that was one of the best modems I’ve ever had. I have not had a single hiccup with this change.
Trick is when they ask what the modem is tell them another 6183. Don’t elaborate and change the subject.
