Customers are saying

Customers find value in the Nighthawk 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 Voice Cable Modem's ease of use, strong performance, and straightforward setup. Many appreciate its voice support and competitive price, particularly as an alternative to cable company rentals. However, some users experienced compatibility issues with certain internet providers and reported problems with the Ethernet ports. The lack of built-in Wi-Fi was also a recurring point of feedback.

    Got one last year to replace my leased modem and haven't looked back. Super stable and reliable. I ended up getting a second one for my brother.

    Its hard to connect the wifi speakers to each other. Infrared seems like the science to go. The cloud connection to register the router has baffled me.

    I bought the Netgear Nighthawk 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 modem along with the Netgear AX 11000 router and the AX 8 extender, and I never had such poor WiFi throughout my 1900 sq. ft. home. I have Xfinity 1 GB speed and I used to get better service with my Arris 3.0 DOCSIS modem, Netgear 5300 AC router, along with the the Netgear AX 6 extender, and Xfinity's 450 Mbps speed. My internet speed is not any better. Once in a great while will I hit over 900 Mbps, but most of the time my PC runs anywhere from 28 Mbps to somewhere around 450- 525 Mbps, and that's after I re-set the modem through Xfinity. I ended up adding the AX 6 extender (along with the rest of it), to help boost my speeds in the living room. I did contact Netgear and they really did not offer much of a solution, but wanted to hurry up and close the case, then asked for a review on their next to nothing help. If you know anything about all of these Netgear products I have hooked up, then you know I spent a small fortune for everything. I am totally disappointed in Netgear and cannot recommend any of their new products.
