User questions & answers

Question:	Why does it say 4x ethernet ports in your description where there is only one
Answer:	Because Amazon hasn't corrected their product subscription. I submitted one two weeks ago and has yet to be done. If you need more than 1 ethernet port, then this one is not for you. This has only (1) 2.5 Multi-Gig port.
Question:	Does netgear cm500-1aznas work with tds provider
Answer:	Yes. But you need to call the TDS customer service and provide your CMAC or SN to register your device. These numbers are on the box and the unit
Question:	Can you use a phone to ethernet splitter for voice to work
Answer:	I have never heard of a phone to internet splitter, at least not expressed in those terms. However, for VOIP (which means Voice Over Internet Protocall), you must have at least one phone jack in a modem, or a modem-router combination. Some modems have two such jacks, which could provide two different "lines." Most importantly, you must have your internet service provider's PERMISSION to install and use such a modem, or modem-router combination! My own ISP (Wow, aka Wowway.com) REFUSED to give such permission because that would cut into their profits, since they would no longer receive a monthly FEE to RENT their age-old junk, much of which are at least five years old, which is like a millenia in this day of super-fast-paced electronic offerings. I had to send back every VOIP-capable modem I bought from Amazon and other places because my ISP REFUSED to enable them to work with their so-called service(s). Talk about anti-competitive business practices ... U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), are you paying any attention?
Question:	I understand that this modem says it will only work with xfinity. but has anyone tried this with spectrum? (aka time warner cable
Answer:	Hello. I am writing this Dec 2, 2020 and just activated this modem 2 days ago with Spectrum. It is not on the list of approved modems, but oddly enough the CM400 is. I just told the tech support who activated it that it was compatible and it's worked fine with no problems. I went from 100-120 mbs on my 100 mb plan to 250 to 450 mbs, still on the 100 mb plan. This modem is not on the list of approved models but it seems to work fine so far without periodic latency/drops like the Arris model from Spectrum had.

User questions & answers

Question:	So how do control the cable modem if comcast doesn't provide one
Answer:	Once you install the modem you can either go online and register the device or call Comcast with the serial number. It will then activate and you are good to go. I’ve had no issues with mine at all. And online registration was very easy.
Question:	Quick start quide says it doesn't have wifi capability or router. so, can i get to xfinitywifi wirelessly or not
Answer:	Model MB7621 is a bridge modem, or a Cable modem without a built in WiFi router. You can either purchase an all in one (modem with the built in WiFi router) such as a Motorola MG7700, or purchase a a WiFi router to connect to the MB7621.
Question:	Which one is better for my needs - the mb-7621 or the mb-7420? comcast highest speed for home use is 150 mbps and 100 for downloads

User questions & answers

Question:	How easy is set up on this device? Would I have to call my provider (Comcast
Answer:	It is super easy to set-up, however you usually have to contact comcast with any new device because they have to put it on their system. I basically plugged it in and called comcast, they found the device on the network and I was up and running. The only other step you need is to go into the device setup (the ip address is on the label) and login and set up your username and password for your accounts. There are other settings you can set, but for a basic setup that is all you need to do.
Question:	What is the difference between this one and the $89.99 that you also offer
Answer:	The MG7550 is both a 16X4 modem and an AC1900 router integrated into a single unit. The MB7420 is a 16X4 modem, but does not include an integrated wireless router. The $89.99 MB7420 would typically be used with a wireless router. The MG7550 has a very powerful router built in.
Question:	Is this a 32 band modem
Answer:	The MG7550 supports the 250 Mbps and 300 Mbps services which are the fastest offered by the major service providers using DOCSIS 3.0. The MG7550 does not support 32 channels down, but as a caution, 32 channels is not likely to buy you anything more. The next major cable modem speed increase will use a technology called DOCSIS 3.1. That new technology is at least a year away for most people and will be a premium-priced service. The major cable service providers are very unlikely to use more than 16 channels for DOCSIS 3.0 because that would not be an efficient use of their networks. So buying a DOCSIS 3.0 device with more than a 16 channels down is not likely to buy you anything.
Question:	Sellers keep saying the range is excellent. what exactly is the range for this router? numbers please. i need facts before i invest
Answer:	The range you will get is highly dependent upon what kind of building you are in and how many other wireless signals are in the area. The range you will get in an apartment with concrete walls is much different from the range you will get in a suburban house with drywall interior walls. Results are also highly dependent upon what client (notebook, tablet, phone etc.) you are using. There is an independent study by Netperian that compares the speeds and range of competing AC1900 cable modem gateways. Various building types are used in the test and speed ratings were taken in each room of the buildings. The results were that the Motorola MG7550 is MUCH better than Arris and significantly better than Netgear. The report is over 40 pages long, so you will readily see a few numbers for range are only partial information. With all of that said, in an open field the MG7550 averaged 214 Mbps download speeds at 1000 feet and 475 Mbps at 100 feet. Those were much better data rates than Netgear or Arris with identical conditions.

User questions & answers

Question:	How warm does this modem run? Some of the more recent SB modems ran too hot, leading to early failure
Answer:	Handling of heat was definitely considered in the MB7420 design. All cable modems generate heat, the good designs get rid of the heat efficiently. The MB7420 is very well ventilated on both sides and on the top, and has robust heat sinks on the circuit board to dissipate the heat. The vertical design also helps air circulation. The two year warranty is the longest in the industry and speaks to the durability of the product. With that said, definitely do not operate the MB7420 on its side. The MB7420 is intended to be in a vertical position.
Question:	Are the leds insanely bright like on other motorola modems
Answer:	Whether the LEDs have the right amount of brightness is an opinion. The MB7420 LED brightness was reduced in response to user reviews on earlier modem designs. Definitely attention was paid to the output level and the electronic design throttled back the brightness. You will probably find it a good, but can't say for sure. Your opinion would be welcome.
Question:	Can the stabilizing foot be removed so the modem can lay on its side? Is it screwed/clipped on
Answer:	The foot is attached with 2 screws under the label. It is designed to stand up on the foot to allow for adequate cooling for the modem at high speeds. It is not designed to lay flat on its side with one panel blocked. It is recommended that both side panels and the top not be blocked. Laying it on its side and blocking the ventilation could produce improper operation and unit failure.
Question:	Is this part of the arris motorola surfboard line up of modems
Answer:	No, it is not. This is a much newer design. The MB7420 has a Full Band Capture Digital Tuner, upgraded power handling to protect against lightning and power surges, robust heat sinks to handle a broad temperature range. And the MB7420 looks a lot better than the Arris SB6141.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this modem support phone service from Xfinity
Answer:	No.
Question:	Is there any way i could use this in china? i've entered pppoe id and pw provided by isp on wan setting which is set as l2tp, but no luck
Answer:	Wherever you are...; be it China or the USA; you must take your device to the local office of your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and have them approve it plus register it with their system. ISP protocols are generally universal worldwide but also universal is the premise that you may not access their system without their permission and they expect to get paid for providing the service
Question:	Is this router compatable for voip phone services provided by the cable provider
Answer:	No.
Question:	how is the warranty isuue? how long
Answer:	Warranty is for 3 months. I'd recommend to buy a new one not refurbished. My modem isn't working any more.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this both a modem and router ? (2 in1 thing
Answer:	Yes it is! It has dual functionality. If you have a router you like already you can turn the wifi part off and just use it as a modem
Question:	This says it isn't compatible with at&t, does that mean my iphone, with an at&t connection, will not be able to use this modem
Answer:	It is not compatible with AT&T High Speed Internet service, only good with traditional Cable Service. Your iPhone will connect to the Wi-Fi without issue.
Question:	i'm using this with netgear router (with port forwarding). therefore i have to run this modem in bridge mode. would i be better with a cheaper modem
Answer:	I think you'd be better with a cheaper modem. The whole point of getting this modem is so you don't need to purchase a separate router/Wi-Fi access point.
Question:	I was reading that you cannot run the lan jack and wifi at the same time on this device, is that true? Has anyone else experienced this problem
Answer:	Yes, you can use LAN and wifi the same time.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between this modem, the SB6183, and the SB
Answer:	The SB6180 enables channel bonding of up to 8 downstream channels and 4 upstream channels, which allows an operator to offer their customers advanced multimedia services with data rates of well over 300 Mbps in DOCSIS mode and 400 Mbps in EuroDOCSIS mode for downstream and 120 Mbps upstream. The SB6183 has 16 download & 4 upload channels. Download speeds up to 686 Mbps and upload speeds up to 131 Mbps based on your Cable provider service. That is the main difference I could find. I hope it helps.
Question:	do most users need such a fast cable modem? I have comcast performance....is this over kill or futureproofing with docis 3.1 on horizaen
Answer:	DOCSIS 3.1 is here, true. And the first set of cable modems using the standard will offer some improvements. As with many technologies, they don't saturate the market overnight. In most cases the availability and maturity of a technology in the marketplace can take years - as much as 3 to 5 years. Even if 15 to 20 percent of the market goes to DOCSIS 3.1 in the first or second year, that says 80 percent hasn't. Future proofing your technology is nice, but a measure of sensibility should be used too. I went to the ARRIS SB6183 knowing that my ISP service is 200 Mbps. It allows a considerable cushion for growth. If my ISP's average speeds jumped to 500 Mbps, and I were to consider another cable modem upgrade, I would focus on a faster cable modem that uses the DOCSIS 3.1 standard or any newer and more powerful standard - allowing me to benefit from the latest standards and speeds. The DOCSIS 3.0 standard may well be nearing its End-of-Life in 2 to 3 years. Therefore, I would see no value going to a 1.4 Gbps DOCSIS 3.0 modem.
Question:	Does ARRIS/Motorola support firmware upgrades for the 6183 via downloads to the consumer's computer
Answer:	The Cable Operators (MSOs) have complete control of what cable modem/gateway hardware they will allow installed and the firmware it uses, on their cable plant. This means anything directly connected to the cable plant (COAX) in your house. They do this to ensure that nothing happens to anyone upstream from your connections. Cable Operators follow the DOCSIS Specifications that control this methodology of firmware upgrades as well as providing security for the firmware upgrades. Cable Operators also run both the products and firmware through their own test cycles to approve any manufacturers' modems, wireless gateways, and the associated firmware updates for deployment. This is not an ARRIS only implementation, but the required implementation of any cable device manufacturer. After an MSO has tested and approved a new version of firmware for a cable device, they will then "push" that new firmware out to the devices. So upgrades to the modem firmware will be made automatically but you cannot download them to your computer and perform the upgrade yourself.
Question:	I purchased this item almost 8 weeks ago 8 August 2014 will i receive this item in my lifetime or will i need to leave this item in my will for my kid
Answer:	Purchased SB6183 a week ago, My invoice says estimated shipping between Oct 1 to 10th. What was your estimate date? If i don't see any update by Oct5th i'm going to cancel my order and stick with SB6141.

User questions & answers

Question:	How is this model different than the arris surfboard sb
Answer:	Yes it is a ADSL2+ Modem/Router combo. For Wireless networking it was useless. I even changed to a higher gain antenna combination. I used if for two weeks then got rid of it. I've tried 6 different Modem/Router Combo's over the last year. My service Provider, CenturyLink will not replace a broken Modem/Router. They make you lease one from them. Their equipment has normally been CRAP as far as performance and networking distance. I have been using a TP-LINK TD-W8970 for the past two month's 24/7 without any problems and it has a superior range to any of the others I've tried in the past. I have 6 computers on my home network with the farthest one being located in a small workshop in the back yard approx. 250ft from the TP-Link Modem/Router which is located in a separate room in the house. The three antenna's really make a difference. If you require a dual band modem/router TP-Link has one also, but I only needed a single band one. Hope this helps.
Question:	Going with the cable modem option what’s the best router to pair this with for spectrum
Answer:	The Zoom Modem/Router comes with a line-splitter which plugs into the phone line wall outlet. The router plugs into one side of the splitter and your phone plugs into the other side. This is standard for all DSL internet line internet services.
Question:	How many devices can connect at once? Is that that the 8x refers to
Answer:	Yes, you absolutely can. You can use any device that has a built in web browser and the GUI is fully functional. Here is a link for the ASUS RT-AC3200 setup video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8HjIJf7joY
Question:	Do I also have to buy a router for the modem? And to make sure it obviously speeds up internet connection right
Answer:	The number of devices depends on how they are connected and what they are doing. Wired devices only use the router's CPU as they pass traffic, wireless devices use the CPU and radio recourses. This router has a pretty powerful CPU, so I would expect it to handle wired devices well (having said that, it designed for home/small business use so there could be unknown limitations in the software). Radio is tricky to predict because there are so many unknown factors. I would not plan to have more than about 15 active wireless devices on this kind of router, but it can probably maintain a connection to a greater number of devices if they are mostly idle and well divided between the 3 bands.It also depends on what kind of data the devices use. If it is basic webpages without a lot of graphics and video, then you can have more devices than if they used a lot of bandwidth.

User questions & answers

Question:	Cm600-1aznas ($89.99) vs cm600-100nas ($109.99), what's the difference
Answer:	1aznas is an amazon sku, 100nas is the retail sku. Otherwise they are the same modem.
Question:	Does this modem have a router built in
Answer:	NETGEAR Gigabit Cable Modem 32x8 DOCSIS 3.1 Max speed 6 Gbps | For XFINITY by Comcast and Cox. Compatible with Gig-Speed from Xfinity (CM1000-1AZNAS) This model, nope, that's a no router model and the one Ethernet port is indicative of that. Netgear does not make any Cable Modems are dual units if there is only one Ethernet port, that's the point, no router, if there is a router, there's at least two ports. And the liars here, says up to 6 Gbps, with one single 1 Gbps port, that's a defined 1 Gbps port and there's only 1 so no bonding. Anything that connects to THIS cable modem will only ever, ever, ever be able to max 1 gb up or down, and we know you'll never see that speed but Cox Gigablast, yeah it's insanely fast. I just don't get why it 100 % is lying and does not ever, under any condition support a connection beyond 1 gb, obviously they are referring to what the cable (coax) is capable of doing per docsis 3.1 but that's misleading, that doesn't matter, it support whatever the slower port is, in this case, the limiting port is actually the Gigibit Ethernet port so that's the max speed 1 Gbps, please correct.
Question:	Can the stand be removed
Answer:	The stand on the CM1150V can easily be removed by removing one silver screw from the bottom of the unit. For this particular modem you need a Torx-8 screwdriver or equivalent. An earlier review, presumably for a different modem indicated a Torx-9 was required.
Question:	Does this device increase the Internet Speed? Why i buy it
Answer:	For someone to tell you, "yes"....really doesn't understand how the internet speeds work or do not understand your question. In basic terms....."No", this will NOT increase your internet speed that you subscribe too and pay for. You can't pay for a low internet speed and expect to get fast internet speeds because you bought a piece of equipment. The speeds do not work that way. HOWEVER.....using my current situation for example....I'm a time warner customer. I am paying for the 50 meg speed and I have an Arris 6141 modem. Time Warner just increased all their speeds for free so now I am able to get 300 meg speeds for the same price that I'm currently paying for ***BUT my Arris 6141 modem will only allow roughly 100 megs to get through to me...*** SO I am buying THIS modem because it allows all 300 megs to get through. The internet speed really isn't increased....it's still 300 megs, but by buying a different modem it allows the speed of what I'm paying for to get through. I hope this is a better explanation for you and others wondering about this topic. The answer can be more complicated because of how many "channels" a modem has, ect...but this is a simplistic answer. A modem with 24 downstream channels will allow more speed to get through than a modem with 8 or 16 channels. And a 32 channel will allow more speed to come through than a 24 channel. Allowing more speed to come through isn't the same as increasing the internet speed you have paid for. If that makes any sense.
