Bad modem
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never was able to get this modem to work. I was in contact with the Netgear support and they had me changing different setting but still would not work. I contacted Xfinity, my IP and they tried sending different signals and still did not work so I returned it.

No to netgear
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was told by 3 people to get netgear. It did not work at all for me. Setup was forever and still wouldn't work right. I bought what i thought was best of everything and it was the worse modem i have ever tried. Netgear customer support was no help either.

No longevity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was great while it worked. Unfortunately this modem died less than 2 months after purchasing it. I’m not sure if this is Netgear specific but I have been going through a lot of Netgear equipment late; they break down within one year.

High speed but lasted less than a year
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally purchased an identical model about 10 months ago and it failed for no reason. Since everyone works from home, I needed one right away and BB had them in stock. Even though still under warranty, it took over two weeks to get it replaced. From now on, I am keeping (an expensive) spare.

Too expensive but is excellent
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great modem, but for its price it should also do wireless routing as well

Buy the warranty!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Malfunctioned after 18 mo of use. I had purchased the extended warranty with Geek Squad (well worth it) and Best Buy was awesome with processing a quick exchange.

Bricked by Internet outage
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There was an internet outage in my area for several hours. When the provider turned the internet back on, this modem started flashing rapidly and would no longer connect. After some research, I found out that this is a known issue with these modems. Because I was a few weeks outside of the warranty, Netgear would not provide any service or repairs. Would not recommend.

Netgear NIGHTMARE
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolute utter garbage died after 2 months. Went from 934 Mbps to 212. Comcast measured 1500 Mbps into the modem. Netgear tech support tortured me for a month with the slowest emails on earth and finally decided to send me another piece of junk. They are horrible. Netgear should be sued putting out this trash. I took 4 hrs for Comcast to set it up...none of the "support" personal could seem to manage it. NIGHTMARE

Blazing fast but unstable?
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure if the issuing I’m having with Wi-Fi dropping daily is due to the maiden, router (orbi) or provider. Whatever the issue, when the signal is stable it’s great

Money down the drain
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t buy, it’s software is no longer supported (less than. 1 year after I bought it) and it is now experiencing a NetGear bug that prevents me from getting the speeds I am paying for on Xfinity. xfinity even sent me multiple emails with SUPPORTED modems and said that the NETGEAR issue will not be fixed for a couple months. What a joke and ripe off

Avoid, not able to support comcast upload speeds.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.horrible upload speeds. It was supposed to be a top-of-the-line modem but had super slow upload speeds. Netgear support was not helpful and ultimately returned to get a cheaper but better product from a competitor.
