    Easy set up and instillation. Would have been even faster had I not had to deal with Comcast but to get a modem running required dealing with them otherwise product itself is great

    I bought this modem as recommended by a sales clerk, he said it capable of replacing the one from telecable. It seems to be fast, but I have to reboot it more often than the one telecable was charging me $10 a month for.

    We had to buy a modem for our new home. Buying our own outright made more sense than renting from xfinity. The speeds seem good no regrets.

    I bought this because the sales personnel at all the other computer stores I priced compared at said that Netgear and Linksys were the best. This works great and set up was easy.

    I needed an upgrade to achieve 250+ Mbps from Comcast. All I had to do was call them and plug it in and it works perfectly. I'm finally getting the speeds I'm suppose to.

    This is very simple and for the price an excellent value. We bought this to replace a Motorola surfboard that did not get the speeds that our Time Warner plan afforded us.
