    It's not sure what to do without the error+mesh routers that I try to use but they don't want to pair up and I have been trying to return these items because they are not going to do what I needed to pair up with My cameras so I can see what happens out of my bedroom as I recover from back surgeries and I have to make sure that my Spine is fused straight and then I can see the difference between the Netgear modem and eero 6+mesh routers that just resting in the boxes

    It's a modem so there isn't really much to say here. Everything was as advertised. I have gig service and was getting close (980+/-) to that from the modem. I would recommend this to anyone who has gig service.

    Bought this to replace an Xfinity unit I finally stopped renting. I'd been tracking my speeds on Ookla (50-80 Mbps) now with the CM1000 they are at least twice as fast (160-180 Mbps!) Had no idea that this modem could make such a huge difference. Highly recommend.

    i had a Arris-docsis-3.0-cable-modem but still was having trouble with my internet speed so I decided to get NETGEAR CM1000 it was a little more but worth every penny now my internet is fast and does not slow down.

    Easy setup, just call ISP and read them the info, follow their three steps and you're connected! Not many options for personal configurations but handles different situations exceptionally. Definitely a great buy, will make the investment back by the time the ISP contract is up by not having monthly rental costs from the ISP.

    This unit was not compatible with my cable company. Worked great for a little while, then they did an update on their system and it wouldn’t work anymore. I’m sure it’s not the box, but the cable company. Might want to check with your’s to check compatibility. When it worked, it was super fast!

    we've used a modem cable for years and knew it was time to upgrade when streaming shows would time out - researched the market and found this model to be "future ready". having used it for a month we have not had a single incident of streaming time out and our teenage gamer is happy as can be gaming away in the basement. - highly recommend to use with a netgear nighthawk router - we use the AC5300. highly recommend this cable modem - saves money as you don't pay cable company for renting a never-upgraded box from the cable company.

    Fast and the way to set up. Fastest speeds I've hit on Xfinity gigabit was 800 down/40 up. My only gripe (which ended up being a non issue based on where I ended up placing it was lack of wall mount capability.

    This router is so fast! I have it paired with the high end Nighthawk WiFi and I've never seen files upload and download so quickly, especially wirelessly. I never complain about my Internet or WiFi signal anymore. My WiFi is better at home than at work. I love it.
