    Worth the money

    Upgrading your router and modem is absolutely worth the money. You can have the fastest internet but if you router and modem are subpar it doesn't matter. I was having LOTS of issues running my ever increasing Wi-Fi products at my home. I increased speed and it still didn't work. Talked to my local best buy associate and he recommended using a separate modem and router and upgrading to this unit. MONEY WELL SPENT. I now run numerous smart home products, tablets, phones, and stream all my TV and have no buffering issues at all!

    Must purchase for any compatible ISP! Have had this for over a month now and haven't had any issues what so ever with this modem. The setup took a few minutes and was very easy to follow. I've also received the same provided internet speed from the loaned ISP Modem/Router, but now don't need to pay for a monthly fee.

    Blazing Fast! Works with Comcast

    Bought this as a replacement for my Arris Surfboard and its super fast and easy to install. I have a 400mbps connection and this helps get decent speeds across 9 devices in the house. I'd recommend calling Comcast after setup to make sure it's configured properly, as I had a small hiccup even after I followed the steps. Only con is that the coaxial cable tightness makes it sit a little funny.

    I purchased this modem on sale and do not regret it what so ever. I set it up on black friday with ease and have not had one issue out of it. Had to call comcast for initial setup only to give them the info for the modem otherwise they show their modem as giving connection and that could possibly screw something up in the long end. No drops in connection as my comcast modem would drop every week. And im getting the speeds that i signed up for vs it was off with comcast. Very happy with this product.

    Great Working Modem

    I recently replaced my old Arris modem/router, and paired the netgear with a mesh wifi system. Boy am I glad I did. I always thought that a modem/router was the way to go (minimal chords/everything is in one package), until I started getting triple the internet speed by using a modem & router combo. This is a small unit, and takes up minimal space but does have somewhat of an unstable base. Coaxial cables are very rigid and heavy, which can pull this modem off balance if not secured properly. I have no other negatives to point out other than that. I grabbed this when it was on sale and couldn't be happier.

    Fast and Reliable Modem!

    I bought this modem after receiving some advice from a Best Buy associate. I use it in conjunction with a Netgear Nighthawk AC1700 router. I am able to now get the full speed that I pay for from my ISP at 300 MPS (often even higher). I have five kids so we always have many devices running at once. Since purchasing in February 2018, I have had zero issues with this modem. I have not even had to reset it. I highly recommend this unit, and will stick with Netgear going forward!

    Economical Cable Modem

    As part of reducing our cable modem charges which seem to go up many times than inflation, we purchased this Cable Modem and returned the old rental. The old one had phone connection also and since this does not have, we stopped the home IP service - one step of the chord cutting. Coming back to review of this Cable Modem, this is quite economical and it was on sale with a deep discount perhaps because of at least one generation behind. But this more than suffices for the Cable Speed we have (200 GB) and is working well with the router we have.

    This replaced an much older cable modem (on Xfinity/Comcast) which was failing (had trouble connecting, speed was slow). The set-up was moderately easy, mainly because Xfinity customer service did most of the work. Connect is stable, and am now getting the Xfinity advertised speed. It is bigger than my previous one and gets hotter, so keep that in mind if you have space limitations.

    Recently upgraded the speed of my internet, which then required an upgrade to the modem. After much research, I found this modem to be the better deal. Easy to set up and super fast. More modem than I really need right now, but if I increase my internet speed again, this modem will be able to handle the increase. Compatible with xfinity internet.

    Excellent cable modem...

    ... I decided it was time to stop paying Optimum a rental charge every month for the cable modem and after a bit of research I settled on this one. Installation via the web interface was a snap and I was done in less than 10 minutes. The modem is very fast and I had no issues in the 30 or so days I have owned it. The best part is that in under a year it will pay for its self from the savings off my cable bill...

    I got my xfinity cable and did not want to rent their equipment. They were actually nice enough to recommend this brand and model. I purchased it the same day from local story and i am happy with it since. It has been at least a month. NO problems downloading / uploading and I have about 10 + devices connected via wifi / ethernet (with help of another wifi router and switch). I am happy with this device. Thank you!

    I had a bad experience with an Arris modem because it didn’t had a number to connect to my provider. I was worried purchasing this modem but once I open it. It had instructions to install it. I didn’t have to call optimum. I connected the device. Then went to the website on the guide from my cell phone and swap the modem number myself. Once that was done that is all it took. Really happy with my purchase.

    I upgraded my internet speed to 300Mbps. This is one of the modems that is certified by my ISP (CableOne), with good online reviews and also affordable. Installation pretty easy, called my ISP, gave him the MAC address and was set up in no time. Have used it for 6 months now. Never had the need to reboot even once. Internet signal stable and reaching the speeds I paid for with my ISP.

    I could only rate this thing as excellent. This modem replaced a aging cisco rental modem (8 upstream 4 downstream) that was included with my internet 5 years ago. Speedtest showed almost double what im paying for at the start of the test (about 330) then levels off to around 190 down (im paying for 150) and about 20 up (should only be getting about 10) and the only thing i changed was the modem. My network is run through a nighthawk 1900ac router (gaming pc and editing pc on ports 1 and 2) then into 2 8 port switches 1 switch has 6 miners running full time on it the other is for all my consoles. All wiring is cat6e. Dont get me wrong the cisco modem i had is probably more than enough for most peoples needs. but the modem seemed to be dying and having random drops and connection issues after about 5 years of hard use so i decided for the price it was worth the upgrade. Some of the best money i ever spent on infrastructure.

    set-up relatively easy, small but powerful. Immediately upped my speeds to let me use the amount of data that I am actually paying for. still lacking in overall connection speed but I am also in the process of upgrading other equipment
