    I have never had a cable modem set up so easily. Used with Xfininity, was up and running in 15 minutes (including 12 minutes texting back and forth with Xfinity). Router is fast and range is better than the Xfinity one, too.

    Had hope about this but turned out spectrum will not be supporting this product come October. Wasn’t performing as I thought it would.

    After much research I decided to go with this gateway/router combo and it has worked as advertised for my comcast service. Super easy setup and other than having to call Comsat to give them the router model and serial number, took about 10 minutes to be up and running.

    Just hooked it up yesterday when I added 400Mbs service. So far so good except I have only had 90 meg measurement up to this point and that's wired. Wireless I'm maxing at 40. I can't blame the product on the signal coming in from outside. It is Saturday and a holiday weekend. I will monitor and log my speeds to make sure I am getting something for the extra 20 bucks a month I am paying while making sure this unit is doing it's job. The 50% dip when measuring wireless is a little disturbing. I'm working on some settings adjustments that I only recommend to people who know what they are doing. I did have to call Spectrum to get it connected to the internet but that was quick. The app you download for it wouldn't work. In the end, setup was easy on an existing account.

    I like the combo of this router and modem that is so much better than the Spectrum one....The loading speeds are now what is paid for as well as downloading..It was a very easy connection as I use a wired one and my wife uses wireless...I am very happy that we bought it at Best Buy

    A noticeable improvement over my previous router. I no longer get booted from the VPN when I'm working during the day and my work computer is now faster and more responsive. Easy to set up and got it working quickly.

    Very happy with this. It was suggested by a friend and definitely boosted my speeds. Its very easy to use and makes sure you get true speeds unlike the rented device you get from your carrier that seems to throttle your speed.

    Setup for the rooter was so easy. The instruction and step to set it up were very simple to follow and was running in no time. I'm no computer expert and i was able to get it done. I personally love the look of the it and the performance that it had once hooked up.

    Range is best I've ever used with our 2 story home. Set-up was very simple and I'm not tech savvy by any means. Xfinity tech said he always recommends this gateway when customers ask him for a good recommendation. Two thumbs up for me, don't let the price persuade you from buying.

    This WiFi Cable Modem Router is the best all around for the plain simple fact that if you have an older home with plaster and lathe walls, it will completely penetrate those walls to allow you to take your laptop anywhere in the house without interruption. Plus the price is reasonable.

    We were having issues with internet speed at home and saw where it could be related to the router we had. Since purchasing this new modem/router combo, we have had no issues with internet speed.

    I purchased this after my old modem died after 6 years. This has been a lofesaver and is leaps and bounds in terms of upgrade. It is easy to set up and get going. You will be connected and online!

    This router works great for our household. We didn't want to rent 1 from comcast so after talking to the salesperson at Bestbuy we decided to go with this. We have never had trouble getting wifi at all & no issues with speed of service. We are glad with this purchase.

    The typical routers that come with your service are of the poorest quality. Been through 2 of AT&Ts in one year. Ditched AT&T, returned to previous service & bought the router. It's so much faster & carries through the house without an extender.

    It's compatible with Spectrum internet and pushes fast wifi speeds. Really important when so many devices connect this way in my home. It's fast, really fast, reliable haven't had an ounce of trouble, wish my cable provider was the same lol.

    We had spotty internet service and decided to try a new modem (after confirming our internet service was not the problem). This Nighthawk is user friendly and reaches all parts of our large two story home. A little more money, but well worth the cost.

    I recently moved to a new home and was reviewing my options for Xfinity cable. I knew I wanted fast internet and after doing some research, stumbled across this combo router/modem. At first I was slightly hesitant buying a dual purpose item, there is always a risk that one item doing too many thing can be less effective than 2 items doing one thing. Thankfully, so far I had great success. I originally purchased 150mbps download and consistently received these speeds (even when I didn't I always assume its the providers fault and not the modem).. Just this past week the speed was increased to 200mbps and this modem/router still can keep up. As a gamer, I also need the speed and latency to be top notch and for the most part, this modem will deliver. As with every single router and modem I've ever owned, the occasionally reboot is required to get the speeds and latency back to where I accept. The iOS app has a feature to allow a reboot from the app saving the time to actually be at the modem to reboot (nice feature). Overall I am satisfied with my purchase and would buy again. The cost is slightly expensive but inline for a top quality router where this one also includes a modem. Getting this on my Xfinity account was simple too, just took a call to have the serial number added. Plus, this saves me at least $10 a month so it will eventually pay for itself.

    We wanted to up upgrade our router and modem and this combo was an excellent choice. It's fast and the range is outstanding. I just wish we purchased this sooner!
