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.

    I didn't realize that you could buy a gigabit modem so I rented from Comcast. I saw this and learned it was compatible with Comcast and gigabit internet and finally was able to return my rental modem. My internet speeds haven't changed and now I'm not sharing bandwidth with the Xfinity hotspot that Comcast enables by default on their modems. Other than that, it's a modem, not much else to say.
