Highly recommended for Comcast Xfinity.

I love this device! Background: I just moved into an apartment in Chicago. I pay for Comcast Xfinity 75 Mbps at a great price of $39.99/month. After much research I decided to buy this device instead of renting a $10 a month Comcast modem. Because it's a modem and router combo, I can use this device to broadcast WiFi throughout my apartment. I have a large and LONG apartment with at least 3 large rooms (and a long hallway) so I keep this modem/router in the middle room. According to Speedtest.net, when my PC is connected with an ethernet cable, I get 90Mbps (much more than I'm even paying for - when does that even happen?). WiFi in other rooms is around 20-40Mbps depending on how far I am from the center of the apartment. There are VERY simple instructions in the box, and there's even a dedicated section dedicated to Xfinity. He told me how to get my internet up and running with a dedicated Comcast website instead of calling the company and giving the techs Mac addresses. It took about 5 minutes to set up, if that. I haven't had any problems with it since, but I've only had it for a week. In the box: about 6ft of ethernet cable, a power cord and the device itself. Please note that this box does NOT include the " coaxial cable that connects the modem/router to your wall, so buy it Absolutely! I recommend this device for the quality of the hardware and the Wi-Fi speed it puts out, and almost too easy setup. Thank you
