How to connect to Comcast internet
Can’t get my xfinity modem to allow orbi to access network. Have followed all instructions. Can anyone help? Thanks, Jon.
It's not a PUMA6 modem which is good:

If yoru ISP supports it, would be a good choice.

anyone have any positive/negative with NetGear CM600 - on Amazon for $90.
just contacted Comcast (everyones favorite ISP) and for $5 more they have a modem available with 1Gig download speed now....(currently i have 250mb blast service)...so they will come out and run fiber optic cable and set it up next week. I think they have Arris and Motorola modem/routers - i will avoid Arris if possible.
of course i'll have to enable bridge mode, if that doesn't work i will shut off the 2.4 and 5.0 bands.
if this modem is spotty i will then purchase my own 1 gig modem.
hate to admit my cable bill is up to $230 - for 4 Xfinitiy X1 boxes, all premium channels, plus they give you netflix now. I could save i know , my wife likes the convenience and choices, etc so will stick with this for now, down the road i may just go with internet only, and run a HD antenna, purchase hulu, etc. use my apple tv, firestick, more than i do....
