    I love saving money and time. With this I can hard wire multiple things for a faster connection BUT I have to reset it when switching from one to the other. That kinda bites but overall I'm happy with the performance!!

    Set up was easy, works fine but wish the lights were brighter. It is very hard to see if all the lights are on. Also, the directions do not explain what each light is for.

    It was recommended to me to separate a router and modem and I am glad I did! I have it supplying a nighthawk ac1900 and it is a great match. The capabilities out perform the service I have... So no complaints here.

    Netgear is a brand I have come to trust with my internet computing. I needed a faster modem and didn't want to "rent" one from the cable company. This one was easy to install, and was up and running with no trouble.

    This modem is not only faster than Moto's modems but it doesn't die within a year like the moto modems. Plus I was able to add geek quad protection for only $10. it fails, I bring it back for a new one. win win.

    Was having issues with a router from Charter dropping in and out, not getting full speed etc. This solved all that, paired with my Netgear AC router, everything is smooth, fast and no hiccups since installing.

    Got this to replace a modem - (SB6141) - Was surprised to see at 15% bump in performance on both upload / download test speeds. Nice modem, doesn't seem to have the intermittent drops that other modems are prone too.

    We moved and found out we needed a better modem since we upgraded our service. We don't like to rent from the cable company. This was recommended by our installer and by the clerk at Best Buy. No complaints.
