An Amazing Modem that Spectrum Hates!

This modem is simply amazing.
Quiet, fast, and has a slim design that takes up very little space.
The only thing odd is after all the packaging and advertising that the modem is compatible with Spectrum Internet, their system cannot find or recognize the modem.

Great DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem. Speeds are good. Looks stylish. Nothing much you can really say as long as it works. The price is a big factor in its value, much cheaper than the surfboard.
Doesn't have the 2.5 Gbps capability though.

Do you need a stable Ultra high-speed modem?

After experiencing a sudden death of my 2-year old modem, I went searching for a stable modem with a good reputation. And I found it! With a number of devices accessing the wireless router, I needed a stable modem to keep everything running. Set up was easy and straight forward. I couldn't be more happy with the performance of this Netgear modem.

Netgear resolved my 3yr old Arris Modem drop issue

This Netgear-Nighthawk Cable modem replaced my 3 yr old ARRIS - SURFboard 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem - after experiencing intermittent drops in service for last 5 months and having ruling out my ISP and router as not being the cause. Upon installing this new modem upon recommendation from Astound ISP technician the problem has ceased and now have returned to stable internet. Speed is same as before and the unit is sleek and has small foot print on my entertainment furniture. Very quiet and light is not distracting and due angled face not pointing at you if in a highly visible area like mine is. This works w/ many ISPs but best to confirm w/ your before installing to avoid returns. My max speed is 1 GB so this one fits the bill as it is 1GB rated and delivers as promised.

The price was great, the new speeds from upgrading were even better. Great entry point for my Mediascam internet. If you currently rent your modem from your ISP and thinking about saving a little money and looking for a great upgrade too buy this bad boy!

We bought this modem to upgrade the current one. The first one we bought was defective. We returned/exchanged it. The second one works great! Along with it, we purchased Orbi. They work terrific together! Our internet works better than ever. Fast, easy to connect, and powers multiple devices at one time.

Netgear 3.1

I have been dragging my feet for the last year after Comcast kept emailing me my modem was not compatible with speeds I was paying for. After doing a test I notice the modem I had was 4 years old and the fastest speeds I was getting was half of what I paid for. After doing research Comcast and Att plan on rolling out Fiber internet so to purchase a future proof modem made sense since I wont have to do this in 2 years after Comcast drags it feet rolling out fiber internet. Over all the set up was easy and what was nice is if you follow the directions that Netgear gives you don't have to wait on hold with Comcast. Set up too around 8 minutes and after 15 minutes for it to reboot computer I did a speed test and was blown away how fast it was and how outdated my modem was. Might cost a little extra upfront but if you in a area that might be rolling out 3.1 internet over the next 2 to 3 years it would make sense to spend the extra few dollars and future proof you system. Last time I checked to rent a modem router combo that is 3.0 was around 10 bucks. If you trade in your old modem and get 15 percent off this will pay for it self in less then 12 months.

I've had this modem about a month and haven't had any issues to date. I don't use it to it's full potential but wanted to get it just in case I upgraded my speed. The shipping was extremely fast and setup was very easy. I haven't had any issues with internet cutting out at random times.

Solid easy setup modem, you should be able to install it yourself if you have basic tech skills. I switched from Fios to Comcast, saving almost 50 bucks a month for similar download speeds. The upload speeds aren't as fast but that doesn't mean too much for the average home user.

We needed a replacement modem for our Cox internet. After doing some research, I knew we needed a DOCSIS 3.1. This was reasonable, works with our Google mesh wifi, and is easy to set-up. If you have a lot of devices in your home, I would recommend this modem.

So far working well. Didn’t realize how much my old modem was struggling till upgrading to this. Speeds are much improved. Caught it on sale too thankfully. At least my old modem had the curtesy to die around Black Friday.

Very easy to install and connect with. Matches up perfectly with our existing ORBI router (base and one repeater). Purchased so we could upgrade our internet speed and so far so good. WOULD use NETGEAR again before switching to different brand.

I chose another products first and tried it out. Had multiple installation and setup issues. Talked with the Cox tech support and they recommended this manufacturer and model. Setup was easy and performs as advertised. Very happy with this selection, wish it was my first option I chose.

This new DOCSIS modem was very easy to setup and is much faster than my old unit that I replaced. The only thing to be aware of is that it takes almost 30 minutes before Comcast will see/recognize the modem on their network so that it will allow internet access.
