    NETGEAR Cable Modem CM500 - Compatible with all Cable Providers including Xfinity by Comcast, Spectrum, Cox | For Cable Plans Up to 300 Mbps | DOCSIS 3.0

    • I had Motorola Arris Surfboard SB6540 Wireless Modem but had so much internet connectivity issues over last few years that I considered switching to ATT Fiber just to get reliable connections
    • **After suffering connectivity issue for over a month, Xfininity technician told me, this model is explicitly excluded from their list
    • Easy to set up and haven’t had any connectivity issues after the first couple months of using.
    • I occasionally would just lose internet connection or port forward settings would be ignored and certain apps would have connectivity issues.
    • It's been running for a year with no connectivity issues at all
    • I never have connectivity issues, and we often have a ton of devices connected and running at once.
    • I had to restart it to fix internet connectivity issues
    • We started having intermittent connectivity issues across all devices and multiple routers in our home, which pointed either to our ISP or the cable modem.
    • I’ve been a TWC/Spectrum internet customer for over 15 years at this location and have never had connectivity issues like this.
    • Not sure if it’s our service provider, my location in the house, the router, the modem, or what the issue is, but I seem to have lots of connectivity issues across multiple devices (I.e. MacBook, Xbox one, ps4, and iMac)
    • I contacted my internet service provider to get a break down of how many times the incoming service to my house had experienced issues (thinking maybe the connectivity issues we're stemming from provider).In the last 90 days, there was only 1 instance logged where my service connectivity dropping was on the providers side.
    • Besides the connectivity issue it was NEVER able to achieve 1GB download speed, only ~600mbs with CAT7 Ethernet hooked directly to this modem
    • Began with periodic connectivity issues, eventually ended up disconnecting every 15 minutes
    • The one we went and bought from Best Buy (exact same modem) works just fine, with no connectivity issues
    • Keep it upright with plenty of space around it or you will have connectivity issues.
    • n’t disappoint either
    • n’t support there 500 Mbps speed.
    • (works fine on my cheap T-Mobile hotspot).
    • n’t had issues with fluctuating signal, and I believe this is our magic fix
    • DPC3941T did!So far so good!
    • n’t had any problems at all.

    • The first ID’s on the box were different than on the modem and didn’t work!
    • I WOULD NOT BUY THIS MODEM AGAIN, AND WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND AGAINST ITS PURCHASE.It’s always difficult to say if a device providing poor connectivity is due to the vendor (e.g. Cox, Mediacom, etc.) or the hardware
    • We use ours with the Orbi router and it’s very nice being able to turn kids WiFi’s on and off or use the timers and parental controls.
    • It is the appropriate mb/s for the internet speed I have, and it does its job well
