    The modem is fine, but every once in a while, it stops working. I disconnect it for a few moments and plug it back in, and it starts working as normal again. It’s an inconvenience, but I’m too lazy to return it to the store. Other than that issue, it does what it’s supposed to do.

    Bought this for a relatively small home but had problems with the first one and returned it, then the second one just didn't seem to have enough oooomph to get the signals to the far corners of the house. I'm a Netgear fan, however, so I ended up spending a few more bucks and getting a Nighthawk.
