    Nothing fancy, just another modem. Netgear makes pretty decent stuff, and I have yet to feel like they are low quality. I have been happy with everything I have purchased from them. Easy to use, and works like it should. It needs mounting holes to mount it to a wall though. Only complaint I have.

    I needed to update my Modem. The modem I was using was 9 years old. I was unsure of what to purchase. I went to the a Best Buy store, and received excellent assistance. I purchased the NETGEAR CM500-100NAS cable modem. The price was very good, and it works great. I am very satisfied with the support I received at the store and my purchase.

    I was about to switch my cable provider due to slow internet but decided to change out my equipment first. So glad I did, for it turned out my old router/modem was a 2 in 1 and worked terribly. Decided to get a separate router and modem this time and that was definitely the right decision. This modem works great and wasn't even that expensive. I recommend!

    A fairly good product for home use. It's not an up-to-date model, but with nice downstream speed (not upstream though), that's what you've paid for. And a little plus, it's a NETGEAR. What's disappointing about this modem is its LED indicators. All 5 LEDs are so tiny on the panel, almost invisible and therefore not really useful. Suggest to make them bigger and brighter on those new models.

    Have used both this one and Arris Sb6183. Both work pretty the same as I read they have same chipset. I would go with this one because it is cheaper and the case is black so it is easier blending in a corner. Downside is the first one self-rebooted once every one or two days, so I have to swap for another one and this one has been working reliably so far.

    I bought this because modem rental prices keep going up and up. It works great. It was easy to set up and I wish I wouldn't have waited so long to buy one. In less than a year it will pay itself off. Good deal so far all around. No loss in connectivity, we have cell phones, computers and use netflix& Hulu for our TV... it handles everything well!
