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.

    Super fast connection and is compatible with xfinity. Why pay a monthly fee when you can get this? Much faster than the xfinity provided modem.

    This modem seems to work well and is very fast. We have had several occasions where the system lost internet and had to be rebooted. Otherwise I would give this a 5-star rating.

    Got tired of living with slow wifi so I bought this device and the Nighthawk AX2400 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router. After upgrading my Xfinity wifi plan and connecting the devices, these things work like a charm together and now I have great wifi signal and speeds. Not to mention, the Nighthawk app is great for management and updates.
