Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have a 1 gig internet and made the mistake at first to buy a 3.0 system. You can only get the full potential of 1 gig internet from a 3.1 modem like this one. Ive used this product for 2 months now with a x6 nighthawk and i have absolutely no issues with this modem at all. Well worth the money.

I have always been one to purchase my networking gear and not rent it. So when my old cable modem decided to fail I was looking to replace it with a one of the new DOCSIS 3.1 versions that have become available. I was a bit surprised at how much more they cost than the 3.0 versions. But my last modem probably lasted over 5 years so I did want one that was future proof. One feature here that I was not expecting was how easy it was to activate. I never had to call my cable provider and it was up and running in probably less than 30 minutes. No time on hold, no failed activation attempts. With just a verification of my home address and it was activated and working. It could not have been easier. I have a 150 MB down plan and after putting this is service I was getting 180 MB speeds. Yes the price was a bit of a shock but I have had great experience with Netgear products and I am now mostly future proof and glad I did spend the extra money. Kiddo to the setup Netgear and thanks for the extra speed.

Replacement for one that was struck by lightning. Went just a modem this time and a separate mesh system. Nice setup, works, excellent, so much better than the modem/router combo we had before.

Bought this to replace outdated modem. Easy installation and reliable performance. Very happy with the quality.

Super fast. Reliable. Does the job for 1 gig internet service.

I bought it to cut the rent cost of my RCN provided modem $10/month. Didn't know if it was compatible with RCN because nobody could confirm it beforehand. Not even RCN confirms if the modem works. They just give the characteristics the modem needs to meet for my 550 Mb connection (DOCSIS 3.1, 32x8 channles ) which this modem meets. Called support tech and after 20 min waiting for them to pick up and another 10-15 for their configuration, I can confirm the modem connected and works giving the expected speed and exceeding it in some cases. If everything continue to go well, the modem should pay itself in 16 months.

My aging internet hardware was starting to cause major problems with random signal drops and intermittent throttling. I decided to upgrade to the DOCSIS 3.1 CM1000 modem by NETGEAR, and never looked back. Internet is not only faster now, but doesn't skip a beat.

I just changed over to Xfinity 1000 Mbps wifi. They provided a router/modem combo. The modem was reading 650 at the max. So I upgraded to this modem. It now is rocking 900-1000 Mbps. Not a bad price either. Switch to this you won't regret it.

Needed a replacement Modem and Tech recommended this unit after I answered her questions. This unit has worked exceptionally fast and keeps up with 16 devices without a reduction in download speed.

I have Spectrum Gigabit Internet service and Initially I had a ARRISS SB8200 Modem but the the modem started experiencing dropouts according to Spectrum. I decided to try the Netgear CM1000 Modem and it has excellent performance without dropouts and it boots fast

It was pass time to replace my modem. I was so happy to find arris would be my router and modem. It was so easy to install. The app online was so helpful with the installation. It is running so much faster. It’s a great product.

Using with Mediacom 1 gig service. This replaced the junk rental I was using they provided. Installs in minutes and only required a quick call to mediacom tech support to add to my acct. 10 minute call tops. My internet is easily 3x faster and a lot stronger

Needed a new higher speed modem for internet upgrade. Internet company recmended three different brand models. Talked to the Best Buy associate who was outstanding with all his descriptions. I chose the NetgearCM1000. Easy setup, and it worked flawlessly with no problems then or now.

If you are currently renting a modem, and have a fast internet plan, then this is a great, future-proof modem. I upgraded to gigabit internet with Comcast, and the tech recommended against their modem, so I headed to BB and grabbed this one. Setup is super simple, and it is blazing fast.

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.

Easy setup and straightforward like so many of NETGEAR's products. I originally had an issue with my NETGEAR Nighthawk Router not getting a signal and then dropping a signal at first, but once it was up and running there were no issues.

Good price and excellent product. Easy to set up. Been purchasing NETGEAR products for years and greatly appreciate their workability, capability, and pricing. Recommend Best Buy and NETGEAR.

Sure beats renting equipment every month. Easy to set up (plug and play), just requires a quick call or text to the cable company. Super fast!

If you are stepping up to a high bandwidth data plan with xfinity, then you may need a newer modem that can support DOCSIS 3.1. This modem is certified to work with xfinity and it delivers the speed. It was also able to connect and register itself with xfinity so no phone call needed.

Purchased to upgrade to gig speed internet. Much more stable connections and average speeds at 900mbits+. No lag with zoom calls, stock charts, and two xboxes running at same time.
