    My internet has always been so weak and disconnects all the time until I purchased this and it has been the best. No more problems at all.

    This modem has been stunningly reliable. The modem xfinity provides, i was having to reset multiple times a week. The netgear modem by contrast i have only had to reset once since i bought it, which in my world reliable uptime is incredibly vital. In conclusion, i couldn't be happier.

    It's good, It dose what it dose. Meeting the requirements of Docsis 3.1. Now only if Cox can serve the service they said they would with Gigablast 940 Mbps. Highest measurement I recorded was only 450 Mbps-ish.

    The sales tech recommended this product when I needed to replace a rental modem from the cable company. I only wish I had known that I could use my own modem sooner and save some of those lease fees. Oh well...don't lease, buy! My connectivity times improved 100% with this new modem.

    Great cable modem for what I needed. I've got Xfinity 100 Mbps service, and I'm clocking 121 Mbps speed. Streaming movies through my Firestick is flawless, and there is no lag!

    I got this as it was recommended to me from Xfinity. I wanted to own a modem outright rather than pay rent to them for one. It will pay for itself in just 10 months. Not only that - It is faster than the Xfinity one that I had. This thing is blazing fast.

    This is a great Docsis 3.1 modem for Comcast. I needed a new cable modem when I upgraded to comcast extreme 450 internet. Setup and connection were easy. I did have to call comcast to have the modem provisioned, but once that was done, the modem worked great.

    Very fast - Not a Wifi modem though / I didn't need wifi functionality, and I'm sure it's mentioned somewhere in the info that I missed so not that big of a deal to me, but worth pointing out!

    I mean, it is a modem, nothing too interesting to report. We have had it since Fall 2019 and have not experienced a single issue with the device. It paired amazingly with our Linksys Router and Cox had not issue sending our internet through it.

    i had a Arris-docsis-3.0-cable-modem but still was having trouble with my internet speed so I decided to get NETGEAR CM1000 it was a little more but worth every penny now my internet is fast and does not slow down.

    When i upgraded my internet i just purchased this modem outright and it is so worth it. Having the modem/router combo is good when you have a simple network. But for more complex setups, having a dedicated modem is well worth it.

    Bought this to replace an Xfinity unit I finally stopped renting. I'd been tracking my speeds on Ookla (50-80 Mbps) now with the CM1000 they are at least twice as fast (160-180 Mbps!) Had no idea that this modem could make such a huge difference. Highly recommend.
