Simple Set Up

Very easy to install and set up using the app. Definite upgrade in wifi service throughout my home compared to the Comcast rental equipment. Worthwhile investment.
I had no problem setting up my modem router even though I am computer challenged. I’m old school from an analog world n digital is confusing but this was simple to set up.
I purchased this modem to replace the one from my ISP. Everything was programmed correctly, but for some reason I’m not getting the speed I need from my Internet. I’ve spoken with bot my ISP and Netgear tech support to find out why I’m getting slow speeds when I do a speed test. Net gear says it’s my ISP which I believe is true. They want you to rent theirs out, how else will they make money right?! There seems to be a file that is sent to my modem, but it’s not the correct one and I’ve told my ISP about it and they said everything looks fine. They even sent a tech out to my house and unfortunately I was not home, only my wife was. So she couldn’t answer much technical questions. They tested and were getting fast speed. I plugged my laptop directly to the modem when I got home and cannot even get more than 200Mbps. Which I’m paying for 400 . Not sure what else to do. I wanted to opt out of renting theirs so if my netgear doesn’t have what it takes to get fixed then unfortunately I’m going to have to return it.
