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.

  • Future proofing Comcast Hi-Speed

    I debate for a long time in the store and at home about which DOCSIS "modem" I should purchase. Yes, the Surfboard and others are good reliable standards but they only support DOCSIS 3.0, which is current but not future proof. I went ahead and purchased the NETGEAR DOCSIS 3.1 in a vain attempt to future proof for when Comcast rolls to the new standard. Overall, it currently has the same performance as a traditional DOCSIS 3.0 because it is backwards compatible. However, when Comcast does rollout the upgrade to my area I will be ready. I consistently register 240 Mbps / 12 Mbps speeds, which is AWESOME!

    The Xfinity installation took more steps than you would think, but I don't blame the modem for it. Once you get it to work, it causes no problems. So far, it seems to work fine. I have not tested it to its full power, so I cannot speak of how well it matches specs. So far my connectivity problems have been due to Comcast or my router.
