Reviews around setup (4.64 of 5)

  • t has issues but this one couldn't solve the issue as well
  • My setup did require an actual phone call and actually talking to a human at Comcast, but after that minor inconvenience no issues
  • Well it didnt work the first attempt due to comcast menus and poor xfinity setup menus and procedures
  • I recommend this for its reliability, speed, and easy setup
  • Lightning fast with a fast internet connection, easy setup.

Reviews around work (4.46 of 5)

  • The best cable modem works great with my Nighthawk 850 wireless router!
  • The product works great however getting it set with Comcast was very difficult
  • The Netgear is working now, but I sure wouldn't recommend them to anyone, nor would I purchase Netgear again.
  • so this 16X4 modem plus Xfinitys cheapest internet package works just fine for work, DirecTV on demand, and also Netflix
  • The router has been working great, better than any router I have ever used.

Reviews around performance (4.30 of 5)

  • Was it removed because more memory was needed for another purpose, or because that log is just too incriminating about poor cable performance
  • No problems at all and much-improved performance over previous modem
  • - it does a much better job keeping the modem seated, even when a thick coaxial cable is attached (I had to wedge the Surfboard between the dresser and the wall).As far as performance, I have no complaints
  • Excellent Cable Modem, Mega Fast and Consistent performance
  • My family and I have been using a modem/router combo that was provided to us by Cox for years with terrible performance

Reviews around price (4.29 of 5)

  • For my part I really wish that this was beefed up a bit so it could server as simple router for a home network, but that would have bumped the price up quite a bit (the C7800 is netgear's offering for that market, and its substantially more).
  • A great modem,easy to install and the price is affordable
  • On the other hand, it was either bite the bullet or continuing paying absurd prices
  • Internet and voice works great -- great price and so far no issues with Modem

Reviews around installation (4.29 of 5)

  • t has issues but this one couldn't solve the issue as well
  • The first ID’s on the box were different than on the modem and didn’t work!
  • I politely declined as that was far too expensive and beyond the my needs, plus if everything outside of the modem tests fine, the reasonable deduction is that it is the modem that is faulty.
  • Installation was easy, although phone call to the cable company (Spectrum) was needed to activate the modem
  • Installation was easy, the only issue I had was with my provider (WOW) and not with the modem itself

Reviews around install (4.28 of 5)

  • Works great, easy install and will pay for itself in no time!
  • The first ID’s on the box were different than on the modem and didn’t work!
  • I guess if the modem was installed in a visible location very bright status lights would be annoying, but I still think they could be more prominent

  • Got this product in June and hooked it up and didn’t realize after 3.5 months that it was the modem issues I was having, I spent countless hours on the phone with Comcast and had 3 techs sent out and the last tech swapped out my modem with theirs and it works perfectly, so much time wasted
