User questions & answers

Question:	Is this router quiet/almost silent
Answer:	I don't hear it. The fans inside to cool it are quiet. Not like a Comcast DVR that you can hear from another room. You can even disable lights from flashing so it won't stand out.
Question:	Is this router works with verizon fios
Answer:	No
Question:	Do i have to use "smart connect," or can i choose for myself which band i connect each device to
Answer:	As long as the device you're trying to connect can see both bands, you can connect to either one.
Question:	can a phone line be added to this unit
Answer:	There isn't a phone jack, per se, but you can use any Ethernet service like Obi200 (provided they don't do any 'Mandatory upgrades' Shenanigans, again) and Google Voice. It works perfectly, just you gotta use ethernet and not phone line/Cable company provided Junk.

User questions & answers

Question:	It seems impossible to connect a display via usb-c. use thunderbolt usb-c for video, then you can't charge the macbook air. why
Answer:	The SBG7600AC2 USB 2.0 port supports connected hard drives with SAMBA and DLNA Media Sharing. In addition to supporting USB 2.0 hard drives, the USB port can be used as a charging connection for mobile devices. Note that the USB port does NOT support Internet connection.
Question:	Received today and it is not new. already unwrapped. how do i return to get a new one, like i ordered? or get discount for receiving an open box item
Answer:	Contact Amazon for return and replacement.
Question:	Has anyone noticed their wifi will cut out randomly with this product throughout the day
Answer:	Yes, this is happening increasingly. I bought about 3 months ago. The problem started maybe a couple of weeks later. Now, it’s multiple time, every day. The provider company says they can’t fix. Arris said I was only getting 1 upstream channel, instead of 3. And that was the cause of the intermittent WiFi. You can check your status by typing 192.168.100.1 in browser. Scroll down past your downstream list to see your upstream list. Each line represents a channel. An Arris rep also told me to ask for a ‘tier 1 supervisor’ at the internet provider company. Otherwise, they won’t know how to assist you. That’s where I’m at now. They’re sending a tech out to check everything. I’m just not sure they can fix my upstream problem. We shall see.
Question:	It's impossible to get a true perspective of this modem/router because the reviews and questions are for many Arris products. How is this possible
Answer:	I have Optimum as my ISP and my Arris modems have been very reliable. I had an Arris TM822A that worked perfectly since 2013. I wanted to stop leasing so I purchased the Arris SB6183 as an upgrade and it is working fine for the last 2 weeks. I would only buy one of two Arris. The SB6183 (16x4) or the SB8200 (32x8). I would not buy the Arris SB6190 /TM602/TM1672) or anything with a Puma 6 chipset. The Puma 6 chipset from Intel has a defect that firmware has still not fixed. You can google that chipset to see the issues with latency. If the Arris works with your cable company, I don't see an issue buying one of the two mentioned. BTW, the two are modems only, no router or telephone connection.

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.

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
Answer:	3 things I can tell you. 1. The 7621 is 24 x 8 channels vs 16 x4 for the 7420. More channels means better flow of the data. 2. The 7621 can handle 1000 Mbps vs 643 Mbps for the 7420. Good for future upgrades of your internet speed if needed. 3. The 7621 came out in Dec 2017 vs 2015 for the 7420, newer tech, longer support from right now.
Question:	What chipset is the mb7621 utilizing? intel or broadcom or other
Answer:	Model MB7621 and all Motorola modems utilize the Broadcom modem chipset.

Connect All Your Devices

The built-in router provides high-speed shared Internet access to smartphones, HDTVs, computers, tablets, game stations, streaming media devices, and other Ethernet and WiFi devices.

Better WiFi with AC1600 Dual Band

Dual band gives you two WiFi networks operating simultaneously in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Single band routers only use the 2.4 GHz band. This band is often full of interference as all your devices share that single band with your neighbors. The 5 GHz band in dual band products is typically much less crowded and has less interference. The bottom line? Dual band delivers much better WiFi.

Beamforming

AnyBeam WiFi beamforming at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz focuses the wireless signal on your wireless devices to further enhance wireless performance.

Clean and Easy

Integrating the modem and router saves space, reduces wires and power cubes, and provides a single user interface.

User questions & answers

Question:	What does "AC1200" mean
Answer:	AC means that the router has support for the 802.11ac (or Wi-Fi 5) wireless networking standard, which offers fast WiFi network connections on the 5GHz frequency. 1200 means the max Mbps is 1200
Question:	Does the box come with the necessary cables? (e.g. power cord and coax cable

Question:	Does this modem have netgear genie
Answer:	Hello Thank you for contacting us. It has Netgear Genie App Management. Any questions please contact us again. Thanks.
Question:	I see many ppl asking about a router and answers say “modem only” but the description says wifi modem combo. what am i missing
Answer:	The confusion is due to the illogical way Amazon links questions and answers to products. There are several different products listed on this one product page. Some are just modems, others are modem/router combos. Unfortunately, all the different products on this page share the same questions and answers which aren't relevant to one another. If the description on the product you have selected says it's a modem/router combo, then it's a modem/router combo. The people saying it's only a router are answering the question based on the product their viewing or have purchased. This is a problem that effects many products throughout the Amazon site.

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:	What’s the WiFi range on the sbg
Answer:	In a house it tends to be sufficient. My security cameras run without issue 40-50 feet away. Range drops off outside the house after about 15 feet. So a 60-70 foot radius from the router, then I tend to jump to a neighbors xfinitwifi as a backup outside
Question:	does this have a phone jack
Answer:	No phone jack. Mine has 3 ports 1. Power, 2. Incoming Cable, and 3. Outgoing ethernet.
Question:	will this work with WOW
Answer:	This will work with WOW for everything but their 1 Gb service tier.
Question:	Can you turn off the Mcaffee crap? Has anyone noticed this router not allowing you to visit sites it thinks are “dangerous
Answer:	As OP said I never installed, so nothing to turn off. I started having many problems using a non standard gate way address (192.168.10.1). Router would forget WiFi password, couldn’t access the GUI there. Almost as though the firmware was becoming corrupted. I sent mine back, waiting for replacement - that’s another story.

User questions & answers

Question:	will this work with roku

Question:	it´s compatible with suddenlink
Answer:	No, I have not but If yours is in good working order it should work with the proper driver files.
Question:	Is this a cable modem/router all in one? The description says it is but i've heard some comments saying no, just want to clarify
Answer:	The Zoom is 7 inches long that connects to your computer via a USB port. You then would use telephone wire to connect to phone jack. If you need telephone wire, I can provide it at no cost Tell me the length needed
Question:	Will this work with Atlantic Broadband
Answer:	Hello! I have an iMAC, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5. The i5 is 64-bit and the Zoom 3095 works great! Not sure why Apple took the modem out but I am glad I found this little guy! Simple to install, simple to use, and so far, no issues. I recommend this if you need fax capability with your iMac. Good luck!

User questions & answers

Question:	Confirming that only one device can be connected to the modem, despite additional lan ports? you can't connect, say your pc and a router at same time
Answer:	The MB8600 will allow for one device. You can connect your PC to the MB8600, or connect a router to the MB8600.If, in the very unusual situation, you are paying for and receiving more than one IP address from your provider, then you can directly connect up to 4 devices to the MB8600.
Question:	I also need wifi, what do you recommend
Answer:	The MB8600 modem will work with any WiFi router. Given the speed of the MB8600, you should be using at least an AC1900 router and given the other devices in your network, you might be able to take advantage of a wireless speed even faster than AC1900.The Ethernet port on the MB8600 simply plugs into the WiFi router of your choice. The router should be current enough to have a Gigabit WAN port (10/100/1000 Ethernet port), since you will need that for the speeds that the MB8600 can deliver. And for now, 1 Gbps service is the fastest cable service Comcast is providing in the US. When Comcast or other cable Internet service providers begin providing service speeds over 1Gbps, the MB8600 has the bonded Ethernet ports which will allow the MB8600 to deliver speeds above 1 Gbps. We are not aware of a consumer-home/small office router that does Ethernet port bonding today, but they are coming. Ethernet port bonding is available on Enterprise level routers (routers used in large organizations), but we can't recommend that class of product for a consumer at this point. They are more complicated than you need and more expensive. Bonded Ethernet ports for consumers will appear by the time Comcast is ready to begin delivering speeds above 1Gbps and the MB8600 will be ready to deliver those speeds.In summary: Use at least an AC1900 wireless router Be sure the router you choose has a Gigabit Ethernet WAN port.
Question:	Does this use the now-notorious Intel Puma 6 chipset
Answer:	Model MB8600 and all Motorola products use Broadcom chipsets and do not have the problem associated with the Puma 6 chipset.
Question:	Do all four Ethernet ports on this modem output the same amount of bandwidth or are there only certain ports that operate at maximum capacity
Answer:	The reason for four ports on a modem requires some explanation. It is important to understand the MB8600 does not do routing. The MB8600 is a modem only. A router can be connected to any of the MB8600 GigE ports. The link between the router and the modem is then capable of using the full rate of the one Gbps service Comcast currently can provide with their new DOCSIS 3.1 service. In the future, Comcast and other cable services are expected to offer services faster than on 1 Gbps. When those faster services are offered, the additional ports in the MB8600 will be needed. Ports 1 and 2 can be bonded to allow up to 2 Gbps to be delivered by the MB8600. The other two ports on the MB8600 are there to allow additional port bonding for speeds over 2 Gbps. When Comcast has service speeds over 1 Gbps, the router connected to the MB8600 also needs to do port bonding to take advantage of the port bonding in the MB8600. Routers used by consumers today do not support port bonding. Some routers used in corporate networks do support port bonding. In the future, routers used in homes and small businesses will be sold that support port bonding so they can take advantage of future service speeds that will be faster than 1Gbps. In summary, the four ports on the MB8600 are there to allow the MB8600 to deliver service speeds above 1 Gbps WHEN THOSE SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE. That is good design. Think twice before you buy a modem that pretends to offer speeds above 1Gbps and does not have multiple ports that can be bonded. You can not get a speed above 1 Gbps unless you have a way to get the fast speed out of the modem. The MB8600 is designed to allow speeds above 1 Gbps to be delivered to a router with bonded GigE ports. Other modems are not as well designed.
