I bought this because it thought I could connect more than 1 wifi router. Unless you are an ethernet guru you wouldn't know that. Tech support enlightened me. Not what I expected. the yellow ports on the back made me assume I could use all of them for ethernet.
Been solid since installed. Unfortunately Comcast has attacked it’s reliability when they have had service disruptions. I have made them prove it, which they can’t. Nice job.
Opened the box for my CM1200 Nighthawk Cable Modem, set it up and turned it on. Called the cable company to provision the modem in their system. I was up and getting 300 mbs in minutes.
Very reliable router in terms of maintaining connection but Mbps does float around regularly. Also not hitting full 1.2-1.4 of available speed coming from my wire. Still, hits about 900ish on good days. However can drop as low as 200-300 and flicker around those levels.
Software no longer works on firefox in terms of routerlogin.net and requires using Edge or presumably other Chromium browsers.
Purchased to replace an older Arris Modem that wasn't accommodating my guests with the speeds they were needing to telecommute from Hawaii-OH DEAR-right? So, I did some research and upgraded to the Netgear Nighthawk with a Google Nest Wifi Pro 6e Router. Boy that put some speed on. Thank you for making your product so user friendly and FAST.
