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.

    I've had it for 6 months, and it's been flawless. The speed of the unit has been great, pulling down 300MB/s down and 300MB/s up on a cable subscription that is 250MB/s.

    I put this in a structured writing panel. Didn’t realize how big it was compared to other modems. Also couldn’t remove the foot to mount it. I bought since I use netgear switches. It works fine and got 1 gigabit speeds (which my ISP max).

    I’m even getting more speed that I pay for. Keep in mind if you’re upgrading your current modem you’ll need to call Xfinity activation Dept.
