    I bought the router in October, 2019 because I wanted to save money and not rent the Xfinity router/modem. I'm already having trouble with the internet going out and having to shut it down and turn it on again to make it work. I tried to find information on the Netgear support to fix the problem but it doesn't seem to help. It is cheaper just to rent the Xfinity router/modem.

    Failed after five months

    After five months, modem could no longer maintain connection to cable internet for more than 30 minutes. WiFi transmitter also seems to be failing and cannot maintain local WiFi network connections with or without internet connectivity. Reprovisioning, rebooting, and reconnecting cabling did not work. To troubleshoot, I tried an Xfi Xfinity modem/router and it worked immediately and has not lost connection once, so it doesn’t look like a signal or line issue (all new cables were installed from the pole to the router when I bought this modem five months ago). I could not reach support for warranty replacement, so this is an expensive purchase I regret. Your mileage may vary.

    Lighting strikes take out modems over time. My computer adviser told me to return for separate components.
