    This modem/router is fabulous! The strength of its signal is like the Rock of Gibraltar, absolutely amazing. My cousin Orlo, who builds his own combo modem/routers, recommended this baby. Orlo was right on the money about this model.

    If you want to get the best of technology, stop looking around and go for this router. Yes, it is pricey but the pay off resides precisely in performance and delivery. I can assure I perceived the difference between my old router (a standard Motorola) and this one, the moment I turned it on. I am very satisfied with it and I would definitely recommend it.

    Especially at the price point this router modem combo performs well above my expectations. I had my doubts because I am usually a fan of separating the modem and router but for my parent's place, this was more convenient for remote support. Got the unit on sale so it was a no brainer for me

    It has been almost a month since I bought this device. Its working perfectly fine and delivers great WiFi speeds especially because it has 24 x 8 channels. I did require it to restart once though as the internet services got disrupted (not from the provider but because of this modem).

    Fairly easy to set-up. One does need to download the Nighthawk app to finish installation. Also had to do the Xfinity app n order to get the 2 things to 'play' together. Saving $14/mth with this modem. Will pay for itself in 11 mths.

    Seems to be working fine. Better than paying for a cable modem through Comcast. Think I've paid for 5 of them by now with the monthly rental fee. Plus I got my cable bill down a little.

    Here's the deal: this thing handles the workload for my house pretty well. We have three smart phones, two laptops, and a video streaming player. I don't think we've had all going at the same time, but at any point 3 will likely be. No lags anymore, and I haven't seen any buffering. I'm pleased there. I gave it 4 stars because even though I have 100mps service, I never get more than 20-30mps constant, with spikes of 45-55mps. Maybe I expect too much?

    I wanted a Comcast-compatible "gateway" and this worked perfectly. I made sure the xFinity service to the house was established first, then connected it to the co-ax and plugged it in and it worked. I have it in the front office of a 2,300 ft/sq house and it reaches all corners.

    I upgraded my xfinity provided router with this device to facilitate more effective streaming. I can run 3 apple tv's 3 tablets and 3 phones and a couple of laptops at the same time now without anything loading slow. Note I had to change the primary channels to transmit on a different frequency from neighbors...not hard to do..very user friendly

    Highly recommend you own this product! I had previously purchased an Arris router and this product is far more superior and easy to set up. This is something you can keep for a while and customer service is spectular.

    Wifi started behaving poorly, internet provider suggested a more expensive plan. Decided to upgrade the modem and router. Easy to install and secure the network. Wi-Fi now works great for multiple devices without any lag or interruptions
