Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this mode, to be used with Comcast Xfinity. After a little plug and play and a quick phone call to Comcast I was up and running in no time. I picked this model over the one similar to it because it has 4 Ethernet out ports on the back of it and hardwiring some devices is much better and faster than wireless. I use this product in conjunction to the Google WIFI and I get 800+ mbps no problem. I could get more, but I only pay for the 800. Point is it is fast and reliable. I have had other models that I am constantly having to reset, but not with this one.

It works good and saves me money on my internet bill. It also has made my speeds go up and the internet is not dropping like it was with the cable modem from my internet provider.

I took a little while before posting the review. I wanted to get some time with the device before writing about it. So far so good, Xfinity accepted the modem on my account and I was able to activate it easily and totally online. No long hold times are needed to contact a rep. I have this modem connected to my Eeero Mesh network and the coverage and speeds around the house are good. I recommend this device, although it is a little expensive, I hope to break even before they change the protocol.

Handles network traffic well, setup was easy, definitely noticed cleaner faster speeds. Paired really well with my mesh wireless network.

Solid docsis 3.1 modem. Price matched Amazon price, it will pay for itself in a year by not renting a modem from MEDIACOM cable. Paired with the Eero pro 6 mesh routers, I'm getting over 600 Mbps over wifi throughout my house and over a Gig hardwired. Almost 2 months of use and haven't had to reset the modem... I was resetting weekly when the rented modem would lose internet connection. Highly recommended!

Ease of setup. Increased my D/L from 25 to 300 with same level of service from Spectrum. My old modem was holding me back.

With the whole family home during quarantine trying to work, complete college, high school and elementary school it was no surprise that our internet seemed to slow down. When I called our service provider I was surprised to find out that not only was I no longer getting the highest speed they offer (they upgraded speeds twice) but our modem was outdated too. Since my router is fairly new they suggested I upgrade the modem first to see if one capable of ‘more lanes of traffic’ as they put it would help, which it absolutely did. Thanks to this modem, our connections improved without having to also increase our monthly payment for a faster speed.

Love this modem. I use it with Mediacom. They put their own software on modems even when they are purchased flat out and refuse to give you login info. They require a passcode of the day. My connection was being slowed to 30 mbps and we pay for a 1 gig connection with constant drops. So I went and bought this from best buy. Completley awesome performance.

Increased my speed, always been a fan of net gear. Does the job and out performs any modem out there

I upgraded my internet connection with Comcast up to the "1 gig" speed connection. What they do not tell you is 2 things. The first thing is that you need a Modem that supports DOCS 3.1 (which this Nighthawk does) & the other is that you have to upgrade ALL of your Ethernet cables to at least a CAT 6 to be able to handle the "1 gig" speed. This NETGEAR Modem has no issues handling our internet now

Has great speed, fairly easy to set up and this is coming from someone who isn’t very computer savvy. I wish it were a little more clear on how to set up the other 3 ports

This Model is the top model from netgear and I am happy to say this has fixed my issues. This modem has the capability to go to gig speeds, although, I’m not using it at gig speeds yet I plan on in the future. If you plan on upgrading, spend a little extra and get something that has a little overhead for what you Plan on using. I will say it is y’all and a little wobbly due to my thick cable I have plugged into it so I put velcro on the bottom of the stand and it doesn’t go anywhere. I would see the modem get lifted up a little due to the cable I screw into the back but that’s my setup and more than likely won’t be like your setup

A friend recommended this modem since it is easy to set up, and it works great!

This thing is so much better than any other modem we have ever used, speed is consistent and it was easy to set up.

Product works well. No issues so far. I enjoy the ease of installation.

Very reliable, used a few for friends and family. Capable of maxing most comcast/xfinity speeds until recently.

I purchased to extend my wifi, not sure how well it is working but we will continue to use.

Nice upgrade from my previous modem. Fast, easy to setup.

I have been whining for so many years how slow my internet (between20-30mbps) was despite having a relatively recent wifi5 router and 100mbps download speed from my ISP. I haven't realized the culprit was my OLD cable modem whose maximum download speed was 30 mbps!! This modem brought it to 100!! 10 stars all around!

Easy setup and installation. Future proof your 1GB internet speed with this modem. Another stout product from Netgear with the usual fast delivery from Best Buy.
