Customer Ratings & Reviews

Cable company informed me that some lag issues I was having was my older cable modem and suggested I upgrade it. This one met all the specs for my current provider as well as specs for the next upgrade my provider is planning. Once installed, I noticed no more lag on my devices.

Easy and quick to setup, just connect to Wireless Router with the supplied network cable, connect coax (cable company) and then call your cable provider to get the device registered with them and your account. I replaced a DOCSIS 3.0 modem with this, for the higher speeds

Fast modem, will save on monthly cable fees, works with Cox cable

Everything you would expect a Modem to be. Has always worked perfectly

This modem complies with DOCSIS 3.1, which means that you can get speeds of up to 1 Gbps (if you have signed up for that with your cable company). I have Xfinity Performance Internet which is supposed to be 150 Mbps but I routinely get better than 160 Mbps on Ookla's Speed Test.

I got tired of paying the cable company to rent inferior modems. It only makes sense to buy one imo. I figured get one that was a little future proof with the 3.1. I have had zero issues with this product. The quality is obviously seen right out of the box.

Old modem died, needed a quick replacement since no one wants to "rent" one from our cable provider. Old one had been performing poorly so this was a refreshing boost in performance , easy to get up and running for WOW Cable.

Pretty fast. But a pain to set up with Comcast. Took a 30 minute call to do it. Bought it day one and it took like 4 days to set up. Make sure that mac address will work with Ccast.

It does a great job replacing my Comcast rental gateway. I combined it with a Luxul router and it handles all of my devices just fine. I typically have about 60-70 devices on line at any given time between Thermostats, surveillance, home office, entertainment (TVs and Sonos) and phones. It was an easy replacement with Comcast.

Doesn't get to me a gig on speeds, but I have been getting around 650+ mpbs. It is decent. Only has one ethernet port, but my router has two additional so no big deal. I hate Netgear's customer/technical service though. Beware of that. I have not had any issues whatsoever with this, but I thought I did and had to call Netgear and they were just bad.

Very fast, love netgear products, work the best, easy installation.

Works just fine! I purchased this because I didn’t want to pay the cable company monthly for use of their equipment. So glad I did! This works just fine and I’m going to save money in the long run!

Replaced the comcast modem and save their monthly rental fee, while seeing a dramatic uptick in overall speeds of my network. Recommend going with this if you are locked into a rental fee with your cable internet provider for better performance.

My Internet speed increased exponentially when I started using this Netgear Modem combined with my Ultra Max Speed WiFi Router connected to my ultra speed internet service. All of my devices are operating at the optimum performance level.

The best modem is the one you forget what it looks like. I haven't sat eyes on my modem since its first setup. I think its been about 2 years now. I had to double check if this was the right device to write a review on. Oh, and its blazing fast.

I should have done this years ago and returned the modem/router combo that I rented from Xfinity. This was an easy set-up and will save me significant money over the long haul. Speed is outstanding and seems to be more stable than the old unit I was renting.

Works great! 2020 found us overloading our old router with everyone working or studying from home. We had to reset the old router about once a day. We haven’t had any connection issues since upgrading to this one. Very satisfied.

Had previous issues with the Surfboard modem, switched to the Netgear modem, and all internet issues went away. This is also helped to increase some of my internet speeds along the way. All in all great value for the price. Would recommend 10/10

The NetGear Nighthawk is a perfect upgrade for my home. Easy to install. But make sure you contact your cable provider so they can register and recognize your Nighthawk modem.

It is an excellent modem. The price was extremely reasonable. It is exactly what we needed.
