    Nice Product

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We are using this for about 3 month and overall it is a nice product. we have 3 laptops and 3 iphones using at home, streaming music and videos most of the time and hardly ever have issue with connection. We even networked 8 computers 9(all on wifi) to play a game together and didn't have noticeable issues. it's been less than 5 times that we need to restart the router due to disconnected or slow connection. In short I am happy with the purchase.

    Speed

    Won't support Comcast speed above 90 mbps

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was excited for this purchase until I hooked it up. I have 200 mbps service through comcast/xfinity. I could never ping faster than 90 mbps via ethernet, ever. Wireless always maxed at 30 mbps. I called comcast and after wasting alot of time on multiple calls they sent a technician. True enough, after multiple testing, he hooked up one of their routers and the speed was there but when he reconnected the Zoom, the speed was throttled again. They blame the router, which is partially true, I think Comcast doesn't play fair and throttles after market modem/routers. Any one get better speed with another brand of modem/router?

    No go with phones and tablets

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this modem to replace the one I got from Xfinity in order to lower my bill. At first, I thought it was great. However, I noticed that the internet service I was once getting on my phone and tablets had got worse. Now, pretty much altogether, my phone, tablets, and Wifi printer will not connect to the internet unless I literally set the device right next to the modem. I called Zoom and I will admit, the customer service was great, however, it did not help me. They had me reset some setting and what not but in the end, I am waiting on Comcast to send me another cable box.

    Worked okay, then completely stopped working

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this router to avoid having to pay monthly for renting a modem. Normally I would buy a Netgear modem, but I didn't really Xfinity did have a comparable modem. The first month it worked okay but had some connection issues, then on New Year's Day it failed completely and wouldn't turn on. I looked to see if I could use another modem and found out the NETGEAR - N600 Dual-Band Wireless-N Router with Built-in Cable Modem is comparable with Xfinity so I replaced this modem with the better modem.

    Very Dissapointed in Wireless Range

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The modem and switch itself seems OK but the wireless is terrible. It's only good for about 30'. The signal drops out after about 30' through walls even to the point of getting disconnected altogether. If you have a larger home, be prepared to add a better WAP. It's not bad for an all-in-one unit for smaller spaces.

    Old wireless router was slow and required constant re-setting and I'd lose connections frequently. This one works great, no issues with speed or connectivity.

    Not a super fast 2-in-1 but this will work for basic home internet. Both modem and router so there are less cords. Does not work if you switch to a dsl internet providor

    The most horrible experience

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The Wireless router component is absolutely terrible. The wireless speed has reduced to a crawl. Even if the Modem component is operating at full speed, the router just doesn't transmit. Have reset the wireless router so many times , it works for a few days and then slows down miserably. Absolutely stay away from this Product

    I purchased this so I would not pay a monthly rental fee. Initially, it worked pretty well. Now, after 3 months, it requires being restarted daily in order to work. Today, I have had to restart twice, and it is only 12:30 pm. I would recommend a different modem.

    It works great

    It works as good as Comcast's own modem that saves me $11 monthly on rental Comcast..do the math: $11x 12 months is $132 every year! Crazy. Owning this one by paying just $90 only once. This one is good as Comcast and I have no problem with it. Satisfied
