Customer Ratings & Reviews

Using one of these is much better than using the Spectrum-provided modem, which I found would go down and require rebooting on a regular basis. After swapping in this modem, no more such issues. Unfortunately, the control panel is straight out of 2005 and almost impossible to access unless you are a LAN nerd. It's also hell of expensive.

The wireless router was easy to set up and to provide access to added devices.

Easy set up and upgraded speed over out dated provider AIO

Great modem. Easy setup and fast speed. We've got around 40 devices.

Great cable modem. Upgraded from an old docsys 3.0. I now get close to 1GB download speeds with XFINITY. Pretty easy to set up. With XFINITY, you will want to make sure to have a cell phone or tablet or something else with its own internet connection so you can register the device to your account.

So I have mixed emotions on this modem so I'll go off of real world performance. My ISP is Sparklight and I pay for 1 gig of internet. I originally had the Arris Docsis 3.0 and wanted to upgrade to 3.1 to better handle my new speeds. I never had any drop issues with my Arris and I was getting in the mid 900s wired. Enter the Netgear annnnnnd there's no change. I added the Orbi mesh system and I'm getting the same speeds as I did with my Arris. The only difference, I've had 3 drops in 2 weeks when I never had a drop with my Arris in 2 years. I've only had to reboot everything once to get back on track but I guess time will tell how effective this system is. I REALLY want to love it but right now, it's nothing to write home about. It's hard to say "go out and buy it" at the time of this writing. So I'll leave that up to you and what ISP you have. I do average upper 900s (wired) and the upper 400s on my iPhone 11 Pro (wireless) so it's obviously not bad but the drop issues is what bugs me.

I replaced my combi modem / router with two separate pieces of equipment. The Nighthawk 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 is really more than I needed at the moment, however, it allows me to have flexibility with my un-anticipated future uses. This modem was very easy to set up and connect. I am not a tech savvy user and the staff at Best Buy really helped me with my purchase. Highly reccommend.

Very fast modem. Easy to setup. With the proper router it works as a charm.

Superb modem, I noticed huge upgrade to my internet speeds

This modem is exactly what I needed, very reliable and faat

Works great and performs great too and no struggle to set it up.

So far it’s a great modem. Setup was easy, and the iso app is great for every need.

Easy to setup and compatible with spectrum. Excellent speed

Easy setup once you realize that the 4 ethernet ports on the back are not independent, only one can be used to connect to the router. The rest are "expansion ports". The good part is that you need only one to connevt the router. The later does all the work. When netgesr add 4 ethernet ports, I will upgrade to 5 stars. It works fine with Xfinity.

Great Gigabit modem. Unfortunately Comcast only willing to provide a single IP so if you want to use a wifi router to share network for 50+ other devices, you cant add other devices to the modem built in switch without enabling the modem to be the one which manages IPs.

Love this modem ! Easy setup and super fast ! Recommend highly

Bought this to pair with my Orbi AC3000 router and I have noticed a ridiculous difference in terms of bandwidth and latency. Install was literally plug and play so it shouldn’t be intimidating for a novice. Highly recommend this product

Had some issues to start, especially when being disconnected. Needed to get on the phone with NETGEAR for troubleshooting because nothing worked! If you don’t have a service contract the NETGEAR hotline won’t help you. Overall keeps the house connected and was easy to get hooked up.

Compatible with xfinity, so far everything is running good.

Once I got the unit in the house it was simple to swap connections and easy to just plug and play to my current router following directions, As I had an older model 2.0 you could immediately see the processes operating at the faster rate both information and entertainment.
