The set up was pretty easy - first node was a snap but the 2nd and 3rd I had to reset once or twice to get them activated. My only concern is that there is ONLY the phone app to manage it with and once or twice my phone will say "no internet connection". Also, the built in speed test has my download speeds at 340 Mbps which is what I expect my my desktop that is 10' away from base node is only getting average of 60 Mbps which is slower than I was getting from my Cox cable Arris modem/router. The wifi in the other rooms is improved though and my printer that is on one of the other nodes works perfectly so perhaps its worth it.

Since this was the "official Xfinity" modem we went with it even though it was a bit more expensive than the others. Worked great and was very easy to set up. I was upgrading my moms home network for her and wanted to be sure she had the best and easiest equipment. It good because when you have to call Comcast tech support they know exactly how to help you with this modem.

Will this modem limit capabilities of Airport Extreme?

I want to get and Airport Extreme to put downstream of my modem, hoping to get the advantages of the 802.11ac Wi-Fi technology and dual band 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies. Does this modem limit the signal such that those features won't help me?
No, I would use the Airport Extreme as your primary wifi router and then extend the network with the Motorola.. thats how i have it set up in my moms house and it works great!
