Customer Ratings & Reviews

The modems that your cable service provider are cheap and prone to not working. I recent had this happen to me twice with my ISP and I needed another solution. Enter the Netgear 32 x 8 DCOSIS 3.0 Cable Modem. Works flawlessly and setup was a breeze. Great price. Note that you will need to call your ISP and have them activate your modem on their network. See the description for the ISP's this works with.

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.

easy and super fast setup on xfinity. getting good speed paired with my netgear nighthawk router. happy with purchace. saving money on equipment costs

Using this with Cox as my internet provider. I have it connected to a switch which provides internet to multiple devices including mesh wifi. I've had to restart it a few times when the power goes out but its working fine.

I have two online gamers in the house and we are definitely reaching our internet capabilities without even trying consistently 1.2 terabyte of Internet a month with 4 computers 3 smart tvs and..... alot of gaming consoles (not all used at ones obviously) but this Internet modem gets hot really hot, hasn't died yet but it definitely needs a restart and cool down halfway through Sunday but still working a year or more later (I'm not displaying the purchase date because it's saying I purchased it 3 weeks ago which is not correct)

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.

My first one stopped working all of the sudden after maybe a month but was able to get a new one after exchange. This second one is working well but sometimes still has buffering. Overall, internet speed has improved at least.

I purchased this product along with the NETGEAR - Orbi AC2200 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi System (2-pack) and I could not be happier. After doing this, my service with Xfinity was such a difference for the better. Ditch renting Xfinity's products and pruchase your own. In the end, you end up saving money bc you are no longer renting, you own these products outright. I would highly recommend getting these products to obtain better service with your Xfinity package.

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.

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!

Not much to it. I plugged in this device to my Time Warner/Spectrum service cable, connected my WiFi to this and I was surfing faster than ever. I replaced the all-in-one unit provided by Time Warner/Spectrum at the same time so while I don't know which device made the difference but I'm now getting the speeds I am paying for. Thank you Netgear! The WiFi I purchase is the NETGEAR - Nighthawk AC2300 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 5 Router - Black (I gave his 5 stars as well)

I use this along with the NNETGEAR - AC1000 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 5 Router. I am not at all a techie person. This was easy to set up and it's working great. The performance is very good. I have had it for almost a year. No complaints at all here!

I was able to take full advantage of my gigabit internet at home now that I have a modem that can handle the speeds at a decent price. Would recommend.

I finally decided to stop getting ripped off by Optimum, which was charging me $10 per month to rent their modem (which was much slower and far inferior to this one). This modem was easy to set up and compatible with Optimum’s service. It will pay for itself in one year, and it offers much faster speeds. Bought this brand to keep modem and router same manufacture to promote compatibility.

The Equipment, The Associates, The whole entire shopping experience at Best Buy Waterside Shopping Place is Clean, Safe, Fast, and just a all around pleasing place thank you for that.

We started out with a 16x4 modem for our home network and it just wasn't serving our needs well. We have a lot of devices in our house, some via WiFi and some via ethernet. The salesperson at Best Buy was able to explain to me the reason why one household would need more channels in their modem. Switching to this modem was very seamless and everyone in our house is happy.

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.

I bought this after lightning struck outside my house destroying my old modem. It was a little bit of a trick to get activated with Comcast but in the end we did get it done. It required some work on the user end and also some work on the Comcast side to make it work. I noticed a little bump in modem speeds but nothing too noteworthy because my old modem was really not that old.

I came in looking honestly just at price to determine which modem to buy. The sales associate came over to assist and narrow down my choice of products. He immediately explained the differences in technology and quality, guiding me to the 32x8. This was extremely helpful as I did not completely understand the differences and/or pros/cons. It works great and price was reasonable. Very satisfied with my experience and purchase!

Works as advertised. Had to replace my all in one due to a storm. Netgear is a solid choice.
