Customers are saying

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.

    Owned my last cable modem for 6 years before a power surge took it out. Rather than rent one I bought this one with no problems after almost a year.

    It's been working very good so far. If it performs at the level it's specs indicate, it should last a few years.

    I purchased this modem because my old one wasn't handling the increased speed put out by Comcast. It advertises that it will install to Comcast, however in the end it was necessary to call Comcast and for them to make the hardware connection.
