    We purchased This net gear brand one after a recommendation by the staff. Really great looking and works well. It’s also cable ready and that’s what I was looking for.

    I bought this one after a dual router modem proved problematic. This one works great for streaming and gaming. Download speed not amazing but price worthy.

    I’m an internet power user but the 16x4 docsis 3.0 standard keeps up without issue. The modem is easy to use and setup was basically automated. Perfect for my network

    Got this to pair with my dual band wireless router... No more waiting with multiple devices hooked up and never need to reset after power outage either.

    This was recommended by a Bestbuy member and has done the job saving me from renting a modem from Comcast and since I already have a time capsule as a router this works great

    This router works as you would expect for a high speed router. It is not exactly plug and play. But it is doable for regular people.

    Works with my TWC service no issues. Gets the full download speed to which I have subscribed, but this unit actually has headroom beyond TWC's fastest service right now (as of June 2016)

    This is an upgrade, needed a modem that could complement my 300+ mbps that i get, my last old modem would top out at 150, I have been hitting almost 400mbps on a 300mbps package !

    I got this modem to rid myself of the exorbitant Comcast fee for Modem rental. Not only am I saving money, I have yet to notice even a slight difference in performance. Very good purchase. I am pleased.

    It works for what it's intended use. The LED lights are on the small side. It's a bit difficult to see the lights if you have it setup away from your desk

    This modem has solved our internet speed problems and made our internet time stress-free. Only issue was in not setting up everything with great ease. I eventually figured it all out, but it was a little not user friendly.

    My old modem died so I bought this model. Got it home and plugged it in. Called cable company with pertinent information they need to make it function and it was up and running. No problems. Chugging along well ever since.

    We are limited and monitored with TWC and the law how fast we can really transfer our data. Although it's much better and faster than the pokey modem combination TWC rents you.
