NETGEAR Nighthawk DOCSIS 3.1 Mid/high-Split Cable Modem (CM3000) – Approved for Today’s Fastest Speeds - Works with All Cable Providers Incl. Xfinity, Spectrum, Cox - for Cable Plans up to 2.5Gbps

I recently upgraded to the NETGEAR Nighthawk CM3000 DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem, and it has been an exceptional performer for my high-speed internet needs. Here's my experience: Pros: Supports Top-Tier Speeds: This modem is approved for cable plans up to 2.5Gbps, making it perfect for today’s ultra-fast internet and future-proofing for years to come. My speeds are consistently reliable, with no dips or interruptions, even during peak hours. Broad Compatibility: It works seamlessly with all major cable providers, including Xfinity, Spectrum, and Cox. Activation with Xfinity was a breeze, taking only a few minutes to get up and running. DOCSIS 3.1 Technology: The mid/high-split support ensures better upstream and downstream capabilities, making it ideal for heavy internet users like gamers, streamers, and remote workers. Compact Design: The sleek, vertical design saves space and blends well with my other networking equipment. Cons: No Built-In Wi-Fi: This modem doesn’t include Wi-Fi capabilities, so you’ll need a separate router for wireless connections. For me, this wasn’t an issue since I paired it with some other routers Price: It’s a bit pricey compared to some other modems, but the performance and future-proofing make it worth the investment.

I’ve used netgear equipment for years with their routers and other devices. Everything just works and when it doesn’t, it’s easy to find support and get it working the way I want it to. After upgrading my cable internet speed, I needed an upgraded cable modem and this worked flawlessly with spectrum. They were able to add it quickly to their network and it gave me above 1 gb/s speeds right away. Paired with my nighthawk RS600 and my house runs with crazy speeds! Even in rooms across the house, WiFi speeds exceed 900 mb/s. Fantastic!

Such a great upgrade from my previous Modem. I can actually receive the Gig speed I'm paying for. Setup was easy, great instructions included. We have a rural cable/internet company the connectivity was seamless. This modem was mid-range price wise in the research I did, but so far, I consider it a great value.

Really the best cable modem I’ve ever used. Even though I subscribed to Comcast service at 500 Mb down I’m getting close to a gig, 940 Mb down. Stable and reliable.

Possibly the worst cable modem I have ever installed. Installed easily enough but I have over 18 wired and wireless security creameries using both proprietary software and micrsoft edge to view and after setting up this modem the cameras would not work. I am a retired IT with over 40 years experience in security camera install and this had me thrown. Put my old netgear c700 modem back in and all is good. This is the second Netgear mid split I have tried and both have been disappointing.
