    No sense in spending $13.00 a month in cable modem rental fees when you can buy one for $74 and still save over $80 the first year alone.

    I still need to keep my extensions, this one is about the same as the previous one, and one of my printers can’t connect with it, means not backwards compatible.

    I use it with Time Warner Cable's version of Spectrum, and it works to get the bandwidth they advertise without paying a monthly rental fee for their modem.

    Don’t buy/rent whatever modem the ISPs want you to buy. This modem covers all of streaming needs very easily. Highly recommended.

    It is still going strong and saving me the useless monthly charge from the internet company. It has paid for itself.

    Installed today to work with TDS here in Colorado. So far so good, 93-94 mB down, 12-13 mb up... We will see how long it holds up, but its performing well at the moment... and the price was right. Seems to run a little warm, and a very small form factor.

    No hiccups other than after a thunder storm the router had a difficult time recovering/unlocking - perhaps due to ack/nack issue with cable modem(?). After unplugging everything a couple times it got back online.

    Great replacement piece from my local cable company's rental option. One payment compared to $13.00 per month rental is absurd.

    Too Pricy

    I bought this in replacement of the cheaper one I bought, because my internet has to have 16* 8 channel to work fine without disconnecting. It is definitely a good modem but it is too expensive.
