    Had power outage that fried a previous modem that was giving us great signal in the house. Spectrum gave us a unit from them that was absolutely horrible. Very poor speeds and dropped internet all the time. Went ahead and got this and wow, what a difference. Games online no longer drop or lag like crazy. No more internet drops and speeds are just overall faster. Did have to contact Spectrum to get it activated but that was the only difficult part.

    I bought this Modem and a Router wifi-6 so I did not have to pay rent on Comcast modem anymore. Setting both was incredibly hard and I spent hours on the phone with Netgear but now I'M SUPER HAPPY!!! The combination makes this the fastest setup you can have at home with a fantastic range. My house is over 3,000 Sq ft and I get full bars even outside. The speed will vary according to your device, so my cell phone and my friend's iPhone are super fast. I set up a guest network so friends can come in and use it without interfering with my other devices. I have about 26 devices connected and nothing can slow down the network. Too bad cost a LOT of $$$$$$ but you won't need to buy anything else for the next 5 to 6 years.

    This does its job, which is to provide 1000Mbs internet to my house. I had the cable guy from Comcast help me install it because I wasn't getting the full speed at first. Once we troubleshooted for a little while we were averaging in the 850 to 950 Mbs range which was close enough for me, and a lot faster than I had with my previous service. Once it was setup I pretty much never have to mess with it and it just works. So I am pleased so long as it keeps the fast internet going.

    Finally--a working cable/modem!

    This was the 3rd cable/modem I tried (on the advice of an anonymous Comcast technician ) after two failures with other brands. I knew that DOCSIS 3.1 was overkill, but seemed a reasonable undertaking since I will own this for a few years. The setup is not strait forward as you will be communicating with the cable company using a cellphone while the network is down. Make sure you have a laptop with Ethernet to test your local setup. Now that it's installed, WiFI6 is definitely worth it, in addition to cat5 wherever you can put it.

    I have had this for a few weeks and so far so good. Set up was easy with iOS. I now get full 960 Mbps via ethernet. I like the extra ethernet plugs, it come in handy to stream line my system. Highly recommend.

    much bigger than my DOCSIS 3.0 Netgear, taller, so if you hide your modem worth noting. Activated and running in minutes, stable and fast. Broacomm chipset runs far cooler than older versions.

    Works with Mediacom if you're wondering but you will have to contact them as the automated setup failed. It's faster than their modem of course but nothing significant. Overpriced IMHO.

    Powerhouse Modem

    Just replaced an 8 year old modem that Charter Spectrum gave me to use. I also paired this up with the new Netgear Nighthawk AX8 router. My last router was the Netgear Nighthawk AC3200, so still great. I was getting 100 mbps from Charter but I knew I could do better. Charter just upped their speeds in my area to 400 mbps so I got this modem and it is really pushing my speeds though consistently. I love it and I love the design of it as well. Definitely recommend this modem if your ISP is giving you speeds over 100 mbps. You may be certainly missing out if you are using the ISP's modem! This was a breeze to set up and I feel like I future proofed myself quite a bit in the process.
