Reviews around coverage (5.00 of 5)

  • strong 5G radio, has better range than other router-modems I tried
  • It has 2.4g and 5g both signals, and the 5g is fast if I sit not very far from the modem
  • The WiFi router also has notably improved coverage and penetration for my house.
  • I don't see any need to use an external router, the one included provides great coverage on both wireless bands.

Reviews around speed (3.37 of 5)

  • modem/routers belong to them and they can program them however they wish and the user can't do anything without risking terrible internet speeds
  • This unit does not combine the two lines into a faster speed, but otherwise works fine.
  • I liked the speed but disliked the straight up and down size of modum.
  • The only good thing I can say is that the speed of this modem over my older modem was better.
  • Now, having said that we have noticed the overall speed of the internet these days is slower, but do not believe it is this modem
