In addition to being widely compatible, the Arris SBG6400 features some robust specifications that will set it apart from other models. This Arris modem's 8x4 channel bonding supports download speeds up to 343 Mbps and provides adequate bandwidth for internet browsing, streaming video, and online gaming.

This model's N300 WiFi router helps connect your wireless devices from anywhere in your home without the need for wires. This modem's built-in WiFi may not be powerful enough for your home if you live in a densely populated area or if you have a larger home. This model allows you to disable the built-in wireless and put the modem in what's called "bridge mode". Bridge mode allows you to turn off the WiFi and forward that job to a separate router. This added versatility allows you to make the most of your network and customize it completely to fit your unique needs.
