Best Years of Service for Modems and Routers

When I bought this unit I didn't want to pay Comcast an extra $10/month to rent their router/gateway. After some research I settled on the C6300. Comcast didn't even offer 5GHz at the time of purchase, but I was assured that I wanted that capability. In fact, a few years passed and 5 GHz was proposed. Setup is very easy even if you're not very good at it, and if you run into any difficulties, support is just a phone call or chat session away. I've had my block for 4 years and it's still working like a champ. The monitoring software, both for mobile and PC, is a great addition. In addition to 2.4GHz and 5GHz, you have two additional "guest" networks, one at 2.4GHz and the other at 5GHz. The software not only allows you to set guest passwords, but also enables and disables guest access. In addition, you can use the network map to view everything that is connected to your network. I have a lot of home automation and I can see every lightbulb, hub, smart plug, etc. I can also turn off any device connected to the network from the app. It's easy to spot something or someone that shouldn't be online.
