Your momma
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used Motorola Surfboard modems for years and finally switched over to this style of modem. This modem is amazing and no more bottlenecking from the surfboard modem. I will never want to go back to an SB after using this modem for a few weeks now.

Has been working great!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My ISP is MIDCO and as others have mentioned before, when you call in to register/activate your modem you must communicate it is a “Motorola MB8600” (the one on their approved list). And it works great!!!

Cost effective + reliable
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great and rock solid reliable, as long as you pair it with your own router such as my Google Nest WiFi. Far more cost effective then renting a router from Cox.

Great Modem!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great! Picked it because it was on the list of modems mebtioned as compatible with XFinity. The only thing that bothers me a little is how light it is. It makes it hard to place if the coax has some memory in it.

Nice modem
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to upgrade previous arris which was limited on download speed and started to seem slow. This one is capable of more than a gigabit speed, essentially future proofing for few years down the road.

Switching to streaming internet tv
||Posted .

Good Cable Modem
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I need my own cable modem to save monthly rental fee, I read the review for this and decided to pick this one. It's easy to install. So far, it works great! :)

Does not have the dreaded Intel Puma 6 chipset!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well on WoW Cable network. This is just a modem, it does not have a built in router. The cost of the modem will pay for itself in just over a year by avoiding rental fees ($14/month with WoW).

Easy setup
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No-fuss, no muss, that's this modem. Once you call Xfinity for activation, which is painless and straightforward, you're connected. Since I purchased this, I've experienced no problems.

Gr8
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as described. Fast. The light on the front which verifies the internet speed it is locked in at is blinking which means it is not measuring the speed. I ran a speed test though and I am receiving full speed .

Does the job well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid modem, speed has been great. Picked up the signal right after hurricane Ian pretty quickly, but that doesn't really have anything to do with the modem.
