Beats renting from Comcast!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While I may strapped with the type of modem I can get (due to the fact that I also have phone with Comcast), I love not renting it from Comcast anymore and giving them any more money than is absolutely necessary. I wish I would have known that the faster version if this modem was coming out shortly after I bought this one. Speed is the only flaw. Still, it is it feels amazing not paying Comcast the rental fee!

great modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had been paying Comcast $10.00 a month rental fee on their modem for serval years now and figure that I should own it by now. I didn't realize that I could go to Best Buy and buy my own Comcast modem plus the extend warranty and still save money in the long run.

Maybe ok
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't really tell yet. Comcast just gave me a new one that is working fine. And they are not charging it foe me yet. So I returned one.

Saving on my Comcast bill
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this modem so I wouldn't have to rent from Comcast. Our last one lasted years. Just needed an upgrade when we added phone service. Will pay for itself in couple years. Works just fine. Have been able to connect to all our devices with no issues.

Solid performance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid product, set up with comcast depends on who picks up the phone. Wifi speeds appear to be consistent with Comcast provided unit.

Perfect For Our Needs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this based on recommendations from the cable company. (In fact, we chose this cable company so that we COULD own our modem -- not rent until our heads go gray.) so far, the wi-if is swift and reliable. The cable guy gave us GREAT advice!

Not the latest version
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to get out from under the Comcast monthly rental so I went to Best Buy. I spoke with a customer service rep who suggested this item. Took it home and hooked it up. We had some issues with our cable box so a tech came out to replace it and diagnose our wifi issues as well. He said that this unit is not the latest version. He said that it was not as good as the new one. I have not returned it.

Comcast modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to buy the Comcast modem because I was tired of spending $120 a year on the rental. In less than a year and a half I will have recouped the cost of the modem. I definitely advise you buy a new modem because Comcast will not activate a used one.

Xfinity modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with the modem I bought from you. The customer service was great and it was easy for (even me) to set up. Thank your staff at Jantzen Beach store (Portland Or) for being so kind and helpful and in no time at all I was on my way!

Arris Cable Modem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been paying a monthly rental fee to Comcast for this exact Modem/Router so I decided to purchase my own and return the rental. The setup was very quick and easy. The performance equals and sometimes exceeds the performance of the rental.

Great Modem

Great Modem to replace Comcast monthly charge
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read some reviews that said wifi was not very good on this unit. I purchased it and I have no problems with wifi signal anywhere in my house. But I don't live in a mansion. Ethernet connection gives me top speed and that is what I mostly use.

Great unit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No more paying rental fees to comcast. This unit is in my utility room in my basement and the signal reaches up two floors to the bedrooms. Yes, a bit pricey but if you're in a comcast only market it will pay for itself after a year and a half.
