Customer Ratings & Reviews

Have nothing bad to say about this modem. It can handle up to 1 gig at least. My router is the nighthawk R7000p Flash with dd-wwrt. My spectrum plan in 400 Megabits per second. I push around 407 depending is spectrum has any problems. if you having any problems it normally operator error or your internet provider. That's 80% on your provider.

Easy setup, fast speeds, user friendly process to manage it.

Finally 3.1 allows me to maximize my inetrnet speed and new router potential. Easy to set-up.

Like many other people I'm somewhat limited my options for internet service providers. At least having a better modem is crucial. The default modem/router combinations that ISP's handout are usually lacking in some feature or another. In previous modem's I've rented there was even a critical exploit that was never patched by either the manufacturer or ISP. A name you'd expect to be able to release a fix for it. Netgear has been incredibly solid for me. This is the second modem by them that I've owned. The interface is a no fuss solution. There aren't a myriad of options with it but that's how a modem should be. Unless it doubles as a router there's no need for a multitude of customization. There's been numerous reports of some cable modems overheating. With the slotted vent style of this modem it helps to prevent these issues from occurring, plus it gives it a nice aesthetic. It can be stood upright or laid down horizontally. In either case it's of course recommended to keep it in a well ventilated area and away from heat sources. I don't own any other Netgear products. Lately though I've been considering transitioning some of my other networking components to the brand such as a router and repeater. Simply because it's a name I've associated with as good quality. If you're looking to save money from your ISP rental and/or you have issues with your current modem constantly causing issues, requiring a cycle (power off/on) then I do recommend this product. Uptime is somewhat dependent on your ISP but normally I only ever cycle this modem once every 8-12 weeks.

Easy setup, download speed now close to 300Mbps. Purchased online store had waiting for me when I arrived to pick up.

My husband gives this 2 thumbs up for his gaming, we are able to get 100 mbps, so he loves it. Easy to set up with new Orbi.

i have been using this modem for a few months now and its been working great on xfinity. very happy with the download speeds.

Pretty straight forward installation, works great and it's fast. Mainly got it because it's the best option for my current ISP.

I was using another cable modem and every time I will have an outage the modem would break. (twice already) So I decided to buy the NETGEAR - 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem - Black and it is the best. Also my speeds went up. I was averaging about 800 to 860. Since I bought the NETGEAR - 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem - Black my speeds went up to 930+. I fully recommend this cable modem. Make sure your area is available to use this cable modem 3.1.

Works great I love it and it gives me the 1Gb internet I paid for

Excellent Modem. Faster streaming! Really good price and got the matching router as well.

I acquired this modem in order to access my recently upgraded ISP service which was unavailable through my old Arris DOCSIS 3.0 modem. I initially tried the DOCSIS 3.1 Arris modem, but wasn't happy with it's performance. Then after reading several favorable reviews on this Neatgear modem I decided to give it a try. I am fully satisfied as I am now cranking out the ISP speeds I am paying for.

Easy setup and performance is great. If you want a fantastic product, at a reasonable price, this is the product to buy.

very nice docsis 3.1 modem, have had no problems with cox - very easy to setup and is very fast comparable to my previous modem.

Very fast speeds up and down. 32 channels down and 8 channels up, and the latest DOCSIS 3.1 firmware.

Good modem that resolved some issues we have been having with consistent connection. Easy to set up and view the settings with the netgear app.

Nighthawk lives up to the specs, and if you have metronet, it can handle the 1gig speed. It must be kept in well vented area, as it does stay warm.

I have to say that over the years, I’ve used different Modems but none have compared to the ease, the consistency of speed, as much as this netgear has! I have to yet to have any problems with it and once in and accessing the gateway settings, it just couldn’t be easier to make changes. Honestly hands down, worth the purchase. It’s not the prettiest thing in the world, as looks concern, but it’ll do more than get the job done

Better than Mediacom gives. Increased my speed greatly! It was easy to set up and worked right out of the box.

Modem is fast and reliable, replaced my modem the cable company wanted me to pay monthly for
