  1. Josh2u

    Pretty much plug it in and it guides you through setup once connected. Very straight forward and works reliably

  2. ARDiamonds

    We replaced the Comcast high speed modem/router with this modem and a separate router that gives us 2.5, 5, and 6 gig options with it picking the best for each connection. No regrets at all. So much better connectivity and speed. No more dropped chats while my son gamed or lost internet connectivity and it reaches our entire house unlike our old setup. Get it you won’t regret it. Great modem.

  3. Disappointedcustomer

    Great modem. Easy to setup and getting good speeds. Works with my ASUS router fine.

  4. bass7lb

    Super fast with no problems. Dual LAN connections make managed networking easier. Highly recommended. Has 10G and 1G connections. It does get warm so cool area recommended for installation. It will last longer if it keeps cooler.

  5. slg1

    Purchased to replace a Netgear that died after a power outage, at the recommendation of Xfinity technician. Easy to install, works without a hitch, Was concerned it gets too hot but so far that has not happened.

  6. MargaretA

    Easy to install and has good performance. I feel it is a good quality item.

  7. SamsungArtFrame

    Save money with your own modem instead of renting one from the cable company!

  8. JamesT

    Great product, no issues getting it activated. would recommend
    , make sure it is compatible. with your service provider

  9. Mowens5875

    This is future proofing at it’s finest. Better than the last modem that I had

  10. Mikeh

    Purchased primarily for the 2.5 gb port to connect Xfinity 1.2 gb service. Rock solid stable, vert fast.

  11. DavidS

    Very Good Cable Modem, with excellent on-line customer service…Once again Best Buy exceeded expectations with next delay delivery.

    Set up of the Arris Modem was fast and easy (a simple call to Spectrum, my internet supplier) and I was back in service with a faster, more stable internet service connection.

  12. JackFrost

    Easy to setup and works well with my mesh router. Recommended.

  13. Pharaoh

    Stellar modem for Xfinity/Comcast. I’ve went with a Motorola – MG8702 32×8 DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem + AC3200 Router – Black and it was junk. Ended up buying this Arris and an Asus router instead.

  14. Mrmorales

    this new version is faster than the old one it is very easy to set up. very small does not take much room.

  15. Rahul

    Easy to install and because of the small design easy storage.
    Internet ping and speed as mentioned in description.

  16. Hchavez

    Excellent modem. I am always getting great wifi with my new modem and a plus since I have the Google mesh around my house. Easy to install and very simple modem.

  17. George

    ISP would have made me rent this, so I purchased instead. Should be future proof as it’s DOCSIS 3.1. Also provides more than 1Gbps speed.

  18. Forefore44

    Great modem. It helped me gain more internet speed. It never go down. I recommend!

  19. AndrerD

    Easy to set up . fast, consistent reliable never overheats

  20. RandyA

    We love this modem. It’s excellent quality and provides us outstanding connection!

  21. ATL50guy

    Easy setup and speed is great works nicely with my eeros boxes also

  22. Anonymous

    Works well so far after 6 months of use. Although its not necessarily an issue, the modem itself is plastic and somewhat warm to the touch. A lack of a cooling fan means that you want to keep this away from warmer areas of your house (closets, attics, etc)

  23. JungsangL

    Amazing speed, Easy installation, You love it. I strongly recommend you to check it.

  24. BigT

    Nice modem does take up much space. Easy setup, also provide my home with a good speed of internet.

  25. KrystalH

    Working great with Comcast so far just had to call Comcast to get it set up which was not clear on any instructions we could find on it

  26. Tom2

    No complaints. It sits there and provides stable and fast connectivity. No complaints

  27. DanB

    New technology tripled my download speed after 10 minutes of set up. The app in box walks you through set up with Comcast/ Xfinity. No direct lan access to computer needed. Can set up all through app with Xfinity app. Download speed went from 280 mbps to 890 mbps with the new technology.

  28. Jenny

    Excellent modem. In the several months I’ve been using this modem I’ve had faster and more consistent internet throughout my entire house. Also, its small size is incredibly convenient. Set up was super easy.

  29. BCool

    Works very well. Have not had any issues since changing to this Router

  30. Anthony

    Great!!
    Works With My Fiber Internet with Cox, I get 2 Gigabit Speeds

  31. JoeH

    Arris Cable modems are the modems of choice in my house. This new one is working great! The setup only took minutes and the only reason I am replacing my old Arris modem is because my provider upped my internet speed beyond what the old modem could accommodate.

  32. LandyV

    Great Cable modem and provides great fast speed and it was an easy setup

  33. DaleB

    Working great. Easy setup. Works better than Netgear CM1200.

  34. RERJR

    Replaced my Xfinity xfi with this and a 6e router. Finally have the connection control and stability I was looking for.

  35. Cantgetright

    So far xfinity isn’t complaining about this modem. It works , great

  36. Marco

    Purchased this to replace my faulty Motorola and after a few days my internet connection started to fail every 30 min or so… after a month of complaints with my provider without finding issues with the connection I decided to put a fan on top of the modem and finally discovered that the issue was overheating… I don’t use anywhere close to my bandwidth limits and those are less than half of the spec limit for the modem so I believe that is pretty bad design…

  37. MarkD

    This is probably the best value of the fully DOCSIS 3.1 cable modems. I took off one star because of the misleading hype on the package. Yes, it is capable of downloading data at 10Gbps, but it cannot send data to your router at that speed because the Ethernet connection is limited to 2.5Gbps. Thus even if you pay your cable company for 10Gbps Internet service, and install a 10Gbps Ethernet card in your high-end computer, you will never actually see download speeds anywhere near this because of the bottleneck at the 2.5Gbps Ethernet connector at the read of the modem. Despite the hype, I am quite happy with this modem. I paired it with a TP-Link wired router (no wifi) so I could get rid of the modem/router from Comcast that prevents the user from turning off the wifi radio! The Xfinity app connected the modem to the Internet after I entered its MAC address, but trying to use the Xfinity app for further setting up is a waste of time; I used the TP-Link’s internal router program to set up my wired network. If you want to use your own equipment (always a good idea) and have a separate cable modem and network router, this is a fine choice. But if you REALLY want 10Gbps from the Internet all the way to your computer, you’re gonna have to pay $600 for Arris’ modem/router.

  38. JMa90

    Great product. I get more internet. I’m using Xfinity and it’s 100% compatible. Highly recommend this product.

  39. Danny

    The modem works great with Cox. Have had nearly no downtime other than what I assume is maintenance from Cox themselves. Very easy to setup.

  40. ZacKokomo

    Saving on my cable internet and getting great speeds. Use a router with a mesh setup already so didn’t need xfinity gateway so saving money every month. Simple setup!

  41. AkhilS

    Doesn’t work on upload speed more than 25 mbps with x-finity comcast internet. I have a 100 Mbps upload speed in my plan but xfinity would not provide it for this modem

  42. fgj1n1

    Great product, easy setup, getting higher download and upload speeds than with my original DOCSIS 3.0 modem.

  43. ITGuy

    Bought this to replace an older surfboard modem on comcast. Now i can get 2GB speeds.

  44. RNinLimerick

    This product is easy to setup and monitor with the app.

  45. Jlr1994

    Works fantastic! The product was easy to set up. I would highly recommend.

  46. DavidH

    Easy to setup. Works well. Just 2 ethernet connection. 2.5 and 1GB. I have my Erro 6 attached to the 2.5 ethernet. Other ethernet connection on Erro 6 attached to a Net gear switch. I am getting from Xfinity in the mid 900 internet speed. All devices are getting good wifi.

  47. Afshin

    This is by far the best Cable modem in the Market. one of the only one that gives you a 2.5Gbs connection.

  48. George

    Extremely easy to set up but I’d recommend downloading the app before switching routers just beware this doesn’t supply wifi you need a separate router

  49. RGVTech

    Set up process was quick and simple, It’s less bulky than other modem I’ve owened. My only issue is that the ethernet port does not work unless your ISP provides the service for it.

  50. ParentalUnit2

    It was broken upon opening
    AIRIS customer service was great.
