    This is NOT very user friendly and you have to be near computer coder level to really understand it. I was on the phone with help desk for 2 days trying to figure it why it said I had internet and the router said it was broadcasting but the speed was slower than dial up. Apparently you can’t plug ANYTHING into the modem n you use a router! Cmon Night hawk do better

    Not so great, bought to replace my cox rental and disappointed by its performance. Tech support was not much help either. I kept it anyway cause it was in par with my rental and I have a nighthawk router but I would not suggest it to a friend.

    Still required an ethernet multi- switch despite having 4 ethernet "outs" on the back. The Spectrum technician could not get more than 1 line out to be active at the same time and it wouldn't support my Eero Mesh wifi system without it.

    One year and 10 days later, this modem giving me problems with Cox Gigablast. Anyone buying the modem make sure you get the extra warranty and save yourself money and having to buy another modem after 1 year and 10 days of use. When it did work it was awesome. But get the warranty
