    Worst. Modem. Ever.

    I have owned this modem for 1 year and 1 day, exactly. It continuously times out and loses network connection. The event logs for this thing are LONG. Good luck watching a half hour program if you buy one of these. Xfinity has been out numerous times to troubleshoot, and after checking the exterior and interior lines, trying another location, and swapping out this modem with a test modem, I have reliable internet again. All it took was a different modem. Yet Motorola is giving me a hard time about honoring my warranty claim, despite their 2 year warranty. Do yourself a favor: don't buy anything Motorola.

    Needs better security

    This router was easy enough to set up. What concerns me is that if you go to the given web page your password information is readily available. The username and password is all over the internet. It works well but if you need tighter security consider something else.

    Worked okay for the first 2 months and after that it has been a struggle to get the WIFI to work and connect. I practically have to reset the modem everyday to get the use out of this. Super upset that I spent almost $90 for this junk.

    Though I read the reviews for this product, I thought to try it but exactly does the same for me. The wifi router is not consistent, it discontinues very frequently and the range is also not that fair

    I bought this router brand new, out of the box from Best Buy. They assured me it came straight from the manufacturer and was not a referbished item. I called Comcast to have this internet router activated, but to my surprise, they told me they couldn't because the exact same router with the same serial number was already activated and being usd by someone in California! I had to return the item and I advised Best Buy that they might have a problem with someone stealing the information from these routers and selling them illegally. This was the worst purchase I've ever made through Best Buy.

    literally the worst modem ever. was getting 15mbps if that, and half the time it wouldn’t work. xfinity put their modem in and instantly 80mb consistently. i do not want to keep theirs because it costs a lot and is rented monthly, but if you value speed and consistency please do NOT buy this modem

    If you need a dual band rotor this isn't for you. In my opinion it is outdated.
