Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the product's impressive speed, strong performance, and overall ease of use, including its simple setup and seamless connection. They also appreciate its compatibility, DOCSIS 3.1 support, and affordable price, noting that it operates without lag and stays cool. However, customers are negative about the limited number of ethernet ports and, for some, the signal strength.

    purchased this product by accident, thinking it was going to replace the router modem that I have for AT&T. but you can only get AT&T compatible products. Do not buy this product if you are with AT&T. XFINITY...yes... pay attention and do your research. Do not make the mistake I made when I bought it and had to return it because of my own error.

  • Great but Missing Home Line Port

    This product is very useful if you do not have a home telephone line. If you do have a home line installed, this product will not work with it since it is lacking the necessary port. Usually, the company that you have the home line with offers a free modem with the necessary port that can work with Wi-Fi systems.
