Great modem for the price. Setup wasn't working at first and had to call support for them to do something on their end. After that it works very well.

Recently upgraded internet at the office to Gigabit (1000/35) requiring DOCSIS 3.1 modem. Purchased this as was on Cox's approved list for business accts. Averaging 925-950 down and 35-37 up so all seems to be well. Setup and provisioning took about 5 minutes.

Works great! Easy to set up. Calling & waiting on the phone to talk to the internet provider took the longest time.

Works great in Houston for Xfinity internet. Set up was a breeze with the Xfininty app. Highly recommend especially if you are working from home and homeschooling at the same time.

This is basically the best modem you can buy unless you have extreme internet speeds (3-5gb+) or operate a business, etc. For 90% of homes though this is the one to get if you want fast internet that is also secure.

Easy way to avoid paying Comcast fees for the rest of your life. Running well after almost a year, just make sure to allow it to breathe (as you should all electronics).

We were looking for a modem to stop renting the one from the cable company. This worked perfectly and saves us the rental fee each month. You do have to activate with the cable provider once connected.

I just got this set up like two weeks ago but it is as advertised. My wireless speeds are through the roof compared to before. I did cheat and have a professional set it up for me but I couldn't be happier.

I had to replace my old modem due to Comcast insisting on it. My son the tech genius recommended this one and it was Comcast compliant. Easy setup, works very well. No problems ever in the six months I’ve used it. This is a good one.

Modem works great, and also works with Comcast’s gig speed internet. It takes a little bit to explain to comcast what service you want, they get confused with the fiber gigabit service. Modem runs a little hot, but no issues so far.

I upgraded to the 3.1 model because 4K streaming was not loading as fast and kept buffering. This improved the buffering times and provides faster speeds for my wireless router and to my desktop hardline.

Great modem, ISP was going to charge me $15/month to rent theirs. This will pay for itself in a year even with the 2 year geek squad protection plan.
