    Works well with my netgear router. I haven't had any issues. It took a few tries to set up the entire system after I changed providers but I haven't had any issues.

    This is my first modem that I purchased. I had been renting one from the cable company for 12 years for about $10.00 a month. This modem was easy to setup and works really well.

    Easy-peasy. Unplug the old cable modem and plug in this one. Works out of the box! Call Spectrum to activate it and all's good.

    Great replacement for Time Warner Modem (which was terrible). Getting faster internet to the house now and, with it connected to a better router, getting stronger wireless in larger area.

    This modem was a great compliment to my Nighthawk router that I had purchased. The price was fine and also BestBuy matched Amazon's price so turned out even cheaper than expected.

    I wanted to get my own modem for my Comcast/Xfinity subscription to avoid the monthly $10 fee that they charge to use their equipment. I've been very satisfied with this modem.
