What a difference a cable modem upgrade makes! I am now able to take full advantage of my broadband speed without having to rent a router from Xfinity! It pays for itself!

I read another customer's review (they really knew what they were talking about) when I was deciding to purchase a modem of my own instead of paying Xfinity's Monthly Rental. I am so glad I went with this Netgear Product. My ENTIRE household is using this bad boy! I am so impressed at the speed and strength of this modem. I use DirectTV Stream for ALL 6 TVs, I work from home so I am constantly online, my kids play on their devices plus stream using both upload speeds for live video calls with music and download speeds. My whole house is also running as a Smart home with wireless Apps, etc. I'm not sure if this is helpful to anyone, but I figured I'd try and give a real life (Non-tech wiz) picture of what we use this level of modem for. Worth every penny!

This combo is a little pricy, but it makes up for it in the fast internet and quality that it provides. I also love the Nighthawk app. It allows me to see all of my devices that are currently connected as well as being able to test my internet speed among other useful features.

Modem/Router kept dropping my internet connection. For as much as this cost and with technology the way it is, this shouldn’t have happened. Had this set up with a TP-Link Wi-Fi extender and it still dropped connection. Only a 2100 sq ft home so this should have been sufficient. After reading multiple reviews and forums, I see that this is an issue with this particular modem/router. Took it back and hooked up my old Netgear and it works flawlessly without dropping connection. Only reason I tried for the new one was for the Wi-Fi 6 capability and advertised extended range. Save your money til they figure this model out.

Upgraded to this beast three weeks ago and I am very pleased. My gig contract is pushing 930 and I am really happy. Moreover the improved security checking the entire network is amazing. This is my third Netgear router in thirteen years. This combo is the best yet.

I purchased this modem/router combo as it was one of the recommendations for my internet service. The set up was easy, had to make a couple calls and have it registered to my provider. So far it has given me a reliable connection and it's much faster than the one I was renting before. We use a lot of streaming and gaming at our household and have seen no slowdowns or interruptions on our service, despite having up to 4 devices streaming together. I definitely recommend it if your provider supports it.

Wifi 6 and Cable Modem in One

Netgear Nighthawk Cable Modem CAX80 is fast and a nice way to combine wifi 6 and a cable modem in one. I have Gig service from spectrum and consistently get above advertise (yes I know that's the service provider). Using link aggregation to my other switch. OpenVPN server work well however I'd prefer if net offer different VPN protocols such as IPSec. It is pricey but you get the latest cable broadband technology.

This thing is a monster (size). Its the first time owning a Nighthawk product and wanted something to replace an 8 year old modem and router. The entire setup process can be done from the iOS app from your iPhone or iPad. I wouldnt say it was the easiest network setup I’ve done in the past but eventually got it working. handles 1GB internet speed very well and the range is very good in a two story condo.

just purchased this as there are three gamers in my household with quite a few devices including iPhone’s, iPads, 3 gaming pc‘s, 1 work PC, numerous Laptops and an entire house full oh hue Phillips lights. This was an easy setup and working with spectrum was a breeze to get it up and running too. Gave them my Nighthawk MAC address and a few minutes later done. Accessed the nighthawk app and that was too easy to use. Great product. I may by a mesh accessory just for fun to extend WiFi in the yard at WiFi 6 speeds. Oh and the 2.5Gb port works well on one of the houses PCs.

We consistently get 500+ mbps throughout our 6000 square foot home with this on Cox. Netflix, utube, games on Xbox are the best we have seen. My Nordictrac s22i exercise bike is operating the best it ever has. The speed is not compromised by the number of devices we are using. Devices we have in basement and garage all work perfectly. Who could ask for anything more.
