    I mean, it's a modem so the setup is super simple. Plug and play. I like having my own equipment so I bought this when I upgraded to gigabit internet with xfinity. I couldn't be more pleased with the speeds I'm getting now. Things download in a flash and although I have only had it for a couple of weeks, there are zero issues. I already have a wireless router so I didnt need the combo modem/router. Would definitely recommend to those upgrading to faster internet

    Our previous modem did not deliver the full potential of our cable provider. This new modem does deliver! Our internet provider is not one of the most frequently used and it’s hard to find the most compatible modem however this unit works great and I highly recommended it for 1G service from cable providers, it will pay for its self because there is no Longer any need to rent the providers modem which by the way under performed and failed to work with all of our devices.

    Just moved and needed to pick up a cable modem to go in front of my Nighthawk router. Once comcast added it's MAC address to their route tables, the thing has been up and running flawlessly! Has some great bandwidth, trying out Xfinity's gigabit network and I'm really impressed at both the speeds we're getting as well as how well all of my own hardware (Netgear products) is working with Xfinity's network.
