    I was having trouble with my current internet provider's modem. I decided it was time to buy my own instead of renting one from them. I've only had to reboot the modem once since I have had it. That is a big improvement compared to before.

    Great modem, in true cord cutter fashion I have increased my need for bandwidth. I was using a 16x4 and boy was that overloaded. Updated my router and helped a bit but it wasn't until I swapped my modem that things took off. The 32X8 is what is needed for my current needs.

    We were sick of paying comcast to rent their equipment, so we bought our own and this one has worked flawlessly since we switched. I use this with my eero router stystem, highly recommended.

    we've used a modem cable for years and knew it was time to upgrade when streaming shows would time out - researched the market and found this model to be "future ready". having used it for a month we have not had a single incident of streaming time out and our teenage gamer is happy as can be gaming away in the basement. - highly recommend to use with a netgear nighthawk router - we use the AC5300. highly recommend this cable modem - saves money as you don't pay cable company for renting a never-upgraded box from the cable company.

    My Modem blew and needed a new one - was looking for an Aris to replace my old one but not in stock. Ended up with a NetGear - so far it has worked perfectly.

    It is saving me $10 month on my internet bill so eventually it will pay for itself. The equipment has been working well thus far with no issues. I will say that my internet speeds are more consistent now but I also use this with a new Netgear Orbi mesh router so it is hard to tell where the improvement is coming from.

    Switched from the 3.0 model nighthawk to the 3.1 and definitely see the speed increase making it much better for my son to keep up with some of the newer Xbox games he plats. A great addition to our network.

    This router is so fast! I have it paired with the high end Nighthawk WiFi and I've never seen files upload and download so quickly, especially wirelessly. I never complain about my Internet or WiFi signal anymore. My WiFi is better at home than at work. I love it.

    Super fast modem. Completely fixed my internet issues with Spectrum. I highly recommend buying a new modem instead of renting. This one will be able to go with us if we ever switch services.

    It's a modem so there isn't really much to say here. Everything was as advertised. I have gig service and was getting close (980+/-) to that from the modem. I would recommend this to anyone who has gig service.

    I was really angry that the website does not update as it should in stock in hand so I went to the store to pick up a different item only to find empty shelves. sales personnel suggested another unit, but because I have never heard of that brand I chose this one instead I was expecting a fight either with software or cable company to get this up and running, but this unit took care of everything for me including negotiations with the cable server it has been a joy to work with so far. now to see how long it's service life is .

    Not cheap by any means but if you want the best or at least the high end quality then this is the one. Easy install and works beautifully. Reaches all or rooms in in 3 floor home. I recommend it.

    Easy setup, just call ISP and read them the info, follow their three steps and you're connected! Not many options for personal configurations but handles different situations exceptionally. Definitely a great buy, will make the investment back by the time the ISP contract is up by not having monthly rental costs from the ISP.
