Purchased Wednesday Jan. 04, 2017 at BestBuy online, received delivered to my door Friday Jan.06,2017. Less than 5 minutes to hookup and activate with Comcast working excellent no problems. Anyone complaining they can not activate with Comcast you have to call customer service and give them the mac address of your modem for them to activate it is standard procedure with all new modems activation. Like I said 1 phone call to Comcast give them mac address less than 5 minutes up and running. I especially like the power on off button on back of unit. This modem better than expected if you view the logs and status specs after setting up modem. I also have the Nighthawk X10 router paired with this modem.

I always run 2 routers on my home network. 1 main router in my office at far end of house and 1 router used as a wired access point placed in the middle of my basement. My main router is a Netgear R8500 and my wired access point router is a Netgear R8000. Now my new R9000 X10 will be my main router and my Netgear R8500 will be my wired access point. The new R9000 X10 worth every dollar, easy setup, packed with features. I have the fastest internet speed available in my area. In speed test my R8500 was getting 185 mhps down and 12 mhps up. The new R9000 with the quad core processor is getting 240 mhps down and 13 mhps up. I purchased this router for one reason the future of wireless VR gaming then the AD60 network will be needed for wireless VR. This the best AD router out there. There are a few more brands available for less money, but the only have a dual core processor and do not have all the available connections that the Netgear has. I am a high tech person and this is well worth the future investment.

Very comfortable, clear,noise free

Hello. I purchased the Eclipse and the Plantronics Voyager Edge. They are both the same price. But the Eclipse is the smallest most comfortable, lightweight, and concealing fit.Voice at both ends is crystal clear and no noise all functions work flawlessly. The only con is short battery life other than that the Eclipse is my personal choice over Plantronics Edge which is larger, longer and less comfortable and does not stay in your ear that well without having to use provided over the ear clip. The Plantronics Edge is not as clear voice and you can hear wind noise, but does have much better battery life.

Hello. I did my research of all brand laptops and decided the Toshiba 12.5 radius had the most to offer over all the other brands in this size and price range. After 3 days of using I have no complaints excellent value for the money. Most people do not even realize this unit has Windows HELLO facial detection login built in which many other brands don't even offer. By that I mean it has 2 cameras, 1 webcam and 1 infra red camera for facial detection login. Another excellent feature is the USB 3.1 TYPE C port which you won't find on MOST other brands also 4k. Every feature working flawlessly and my opinion is an excellent unit. READ READ READ and learn how to use features before you complain.

The NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Router, with breakthrough Tri-Band WiFi 5 delivers multiple bands for homes with many WiFi devices. WiFi speed up to 3.2Gbps and 6 high performance antennas provide maximum speed and range. Smart Connect allows you to game, stream, and download mega-sized files without lags.

I use it in...:Large home
I have 20 plus devices on my network at all times I purchased this and it handles them all flawlessly, no lag, no drop in connection at all and it automatically assigns devices their own channel and power frequency and seperates the slow devices from the faster devices with smart connection feature. The r8000 is my main router and I use a r7000 as a wired access point at one of the dead spots in my large home and the system works excellent. I am a high tech user and keep in mind home routers are not designed for great range so if you have a large home the use of a second router as a WIRED access point is the greatest benefit to your network. If you set this router up properly it will work better than expected and the genie sfrtware is excellent and a great benefit to the system.
