NETGEAR CM3000
The Xfinity list of Recommended Devices for Our Internet Plans now references a NETGEAR CM3000 unit. What might this be? Perhaps it is a forthcoming cable modem that supports DOCSIS 4.0?

Time will tell.

That list has been revised/updated several times. The most recent version, dated September 25, 2023, shows the CM3000 listed as compatible but not listed as recommended for the Comcast pre 10G network. Until a number of the units are actually deployed and connected to the Comcast network for a time, it most likely will not move into the recommended category. Eventually it should have full Comcast approval for their 10G network.
On the Charter-Spectrum list of approved modems, the CM3000 is listed as a DOCSIS 3.1 device. Attached is the OEM manual. The technical specifications are on the last page.
I received an email from Xfinity as early as December 18th, 2023, recommending the NETGEAR CM3000. Hopefully, I can find this product sooner rather than later. It would be helpful if Xfinity included, in the email, stores where we could purchase the product.
Xfinity has been showing it on their increased upload speed page for a while so I'd imaging its forthcoming.
oddly it was on a list of approved and compatible devices by comcast but i can't even find it on netgear's site. i did manage to find the manual thru internet search though still from a netgear url.
