    I mean what can you say? How many cable modems does the average person go through? I can say after a few weeks of usage I am seeing a more stable connection and running a few speed tests I’m seeing an improvement over my old surfboard 6141.

    I had an older Motorola modem. Comcast increased my speed from 150 mbps to 250. The Motorola would handle it for a week after that top speed would be 150 mbps. I installed this 3.1 modem and 300 mbps all the time easily.

    Bought it to replace Xfinity modem and the Netgear router has performed very well. The setup instructions are easy and took around 20 mins to get the router up and running.

    From out of the box to a working internet signal this took about 2 minutes. I paired it with a Eero Pro mesh wireless system and have had no issues whatsoever. This is a great purchase for the value.

    We just upgraded to gig speed. This thing works great. Was getting 4-500 downloads. Now with this the speeds are 700-850 which the Comcast guy said was better than their equipment and I don’t have to rent it

    Its a good modem overall, as i upgraded to 1GB internet It doesn't need to be reset often, and works like it should. As a life long netgear fan it does the job and I'd buy it again.

    The Netgear-Nighthawk Cable Modem was very easy to install. We did have a problem with our cable service but it turned out to be a faulty GFI plug. Now it works great.

    I had a modem supplied by my cable company years ago. It worked ok. However I realized that the cable provider was charging me. Well, I wasn't having that! This modem lives up to the reviews.

    Easy to set up. I've owned this modem for one month and it's been great. My previous modem was old and the wifi would drop from my cell all the time - it hasn't dropped once since I switched!

    My previous modem was DOCSIS3.0, and so I finally upgraded to this one. It's just as stable as expected and performs well while under a lot of load.

    Bought to offset the lease fee for the Xfinity modem. It will take few month, but well worth the long term investment. Speeds are as advertised for both uploading and downloading. Couldn't be happier.

    After spending an inordinate amount of time and phone calls with a new high performance modem from a prior "favorite" which I eventually returned to retailer, I purchased this Netgear-CM1000 Router. Excellent buy! Outstanding performance!
