    Updated to the CM 1200 modem from my CM 700. Significant increase in my internet upload and download speeds. Very satisfied so far with the new modem.

    Installation was easy. I am using it with a new nighthawk mesh router, but connection is intermittently dropped, and speed did not improve even though I have a high speed service.

    I bought this item so that I could stop paying comcast a monthly fee. It worked perfectly right out of the box, even better yet I didnt have to call comcast to set it up. So glad I got this , it will be future proof for many years to come!

    The device works as it is listed. I would recommend getting on sale so it doesn't cost much. Renting equipment is optional, but if you intend to use it long time consider buying this.

    So far, this has been the best modem I’ve had yet. It is capable of super fast speeds. I pay for Gigabit speeds and get every bit of it. It’s enough to run my numerous devices and IP cameras flawlessly.

    I've had two of these now, and they both worked very well. I've gotten them provisioned on a couple of different ISPs without incident, whereas other brands of modems have caused problems with my small local ISP. (The reason I've had two was physical damage; nothing went wrong with the first one until it got crushed.)

    Great router - works so much better than the router issued by my ISP. Easy to setup and the extra ports are great to connect other items directly!

    Changing from a 3.0 to 3.1 modem increased our speed significantly. For the money, I think this is great if you have google mesh or other meshing wifi products.

    This modem I purchased because I am still teleworking and my last one went out. It works great the only reason I did not give it five stars is because it does go offline sometimes.

    A fabulous high-speed modem with multiple Cat5 inlets. My older model has failed and was able to locate the modem without the router at Best Buy. A little bit expensive, but you get what you pay for.
