Easy to install, and loves the dual band options. Gets enough coverage in my 1600sqft house. 4 stars because 2.4ghz band is not giving me enough speed during speed test.I have 7 devices running on 2.4ghz, ring door bell, 2 ring flood lights, ring chime, firestick, and 2 tablets and they all work fine. I do however notice that the firestick will lag time to time but its not bad. Just wished the 2.4ghz band would at least give me half of my internet speed (100mbps with xfinity, check the picture i have when im on 2.4ghz band, im only getting about 5mbps.)I also have 2 iphone and my pc running on the 5ghz band and they are running up to speed plus a little more with my internet plan of 100mbps. Im sure i can hook all the devices on on 5ghz since my house is only a one story but no point when im manly using my pc and iphones for the most part.Ive attached a photo of my speed with 5ghz on my iphone. The one highlighted in yellow is verizon lte and Green is running on 2.4ghz. Ive tested all 3 a couple of times and all the results were similar.

Meets the specs for Comcast requirements for Xfinity.

What can I say? The thing should be called the “Usain Bolt” package. Went from 80/ 12 speeds to 260 / 23 speed in seconds. I would say the ONLY issue I faced in this simple installation was contacting Comcast to activate the device. Took me all of 3 hours to find the right department to know what and how to service me. Outside of that, the product is RIDICULOUSLY fast. Perfect for streaming live tv, video games, and movies. My service is 600mbps from xfinity- and this Modem/router offers me up to up to 400mbps (although Comcast said it was pushing 650mbps). All in all this is overkill but nice to have if I ever need it at a really fair price.

Easy to install almost a plug-n-play setup, follow the netgear activation instructions then optimum modem registration instructions. Done. SuckIt Optimum you ain’t getting 10$ a month from me no more no more no more hit the road jack

All in one modem/router was easy to set up and use. Made a huge difference in my desk top and notebook speeds without having to have Cox increase the speed. Highly recommend it.

Comcast bumped our router rental fee up to $14/month so we bailed. We do ALOT of gaming and decided to spend the extra coin for this C7800 unit. We use Xfinity Gigabit and were seeing speeds around 100Mbps with the Comcast router. Took about 15 minutes to install and link up, then ran a speed test and came in just over 400Mbps download (pictured), and occasionally double digit upload speeds. We don’t have TV or phone service since we stream everything so I recently ran the coaxial coming directly from the telephone poll into this router (with proper grounding) and now pushing speeds around 600/30Mbps. Blazing fast for living out in the sticks like we do.My only concern is that my neighborhood is slowly being switched to fiber and I cannot find any info on compatibility with the C7800 unit.

This is the second time I try to write a review if let me finished, the signal is excellent when it works, but I hate to reset it or turn Off/On like 20 times a day if your ISP provider is Spectrum do not buy it, Netgear and Spectrum blame each other on solving my problem, I got no help at all, and I been told from both side in very polite way that is not there !@#$%^ problem, so I was done talking to this people, I will not recommend buying this unit. I hope one day both fix their issues. in the meantime, screw me $300.

Buying this modem was the best decision I made when replacing my rental unit from comcast/xfinity. Th ed set up was fast and required NO PHONE CALL witch if you cant tell I was happy about. The range is as good as the comcast box was and I could have gone up to netgear next model if I needed more witch is nice to know, and the price feel perfectly in budget as t just under $80 I will recoup my money in less then 6 months. In conclusion I just want to thank netgear for actually makeing s product that has delivered on all promises.

So far, so good. I am getting strong WIFI on 2nd floor of house with the router located in basement. The 1st floor sub-flooring in our home is concrete and steel (1930’s junior beam construction) and I had previously had issues getting any signal to 2nd floor even with WIFI extenders. My setup was painless as well as the Comcast installer called it in and had them activate it while he was onsite doing the cable install. I am connected to Comcast 100mbps service and am seeing slightly over 120mbps speeds on Speedtest via a Cat6 ethernet cable.. Roku and Tablo are flying along now. Will update as we get more time and use out of it.

Apart from the usual devices (like TV, phones, laptops and iPad) if you have a smart home setup like Alexa, smart bulbs, smart switches, doorbell, cameras etc, then this is the modem / router you must buy.For a long time I had the issue of my cameras going offline almost once in every 2 days. Then I decided to return the internet service provider’s modem / router and purchased this one. Things have changed now. No more offline devices. Great internet speed over WiFi. And WiFi range is very good.

Instantly better, I went from roughly ~10Mbps to ~110Mbps in a matter of 20 minutes. Set up was easy. Highly recommended. I am on Comcast $30 a month 100Mpbs service in Chicago.

This Modem continues to drop the Internet every day rebooting it and rebooting and rebooting it call technical support they told me what to do at work for a little while now is the same thing Internet dropping Internet dropping I also have Xfinity to come out and check the box and they said the box was no good and I need it to return it but instead I called for support and it worked for a little while now every day the Internet is dropping

I upgraded my Xfinity internet to a higher speed package, so I decided to upgrade my router as well to handle it. I chose not to use a Xfinity router (I read many people recommending to not use a Comcast-provided router), and got this Netgear modem. Before I changed my router, I tested my new internet speed on my old modem, and it topped out at around 100mbps, but it jumped to 239mbps after installing this Netgear modem.Installation was easy, but I did have to call Comcast to get them to finish setting up my new connection. It surprisingly didn’t take them very long (maybe 10 minutes on the phone – I was expecting an annoyingly long wait or multiple hiccups). Anyone looking to upgrade their Xfinity Internet package should consider this modem as well.
