cax80 xfinity slow speeds netgear needs to fix this
another cax80 not getting full speed from xfinity there is a problem here just had a guy out to check the wires from xfinity and everything is great and tried to talk to xfinity and they sent signals...
Why are you blaming the end device when he started he tested the exact same devices on the other modem...
Annoying as hell when people try to distract. It is s1 to 1 comparison. Get it?

Yeap. Netgear ended up replacing my CAX80. But even with the newest firmware I still have problems of disconnecting devices. I strongly believe that the problem resides in the router part of the device, specifically to the smart connect feature. If you separate the frequencies and dedicate 5GHz to faster devices and 2.4GHz to slower ones, the constant disconnecting problem disappears.
In my case, I gave up and bought an eero Pro 6 to use as a router and I setup the CAX80 as a modem only. Ever since the internet and connections in my house are stable all day.

- Cool! I wonder if my irobot, light bulbs, etc will be able to be controlled by as lexa if i separate them... IF netgear will replace this defective one
- Hmm actually wonder if i just went back to the aeris for my modem, if the router function in this would be more stable
- I can control all devices at home, even when they’re connected to different bands. I have my TV hard wired, all my security devices on 2.4GHz and computers, phones, and smart devices to 5GHz; all being controlled.
- Sweet! Now i just have to find a technician who will rma this one
