Avoid Combo Modem Router

When I first bought it, it worked great. Then random network outages began on some devices, 2.4 or 5 GHz just disappeared, the 5 GHz band was very bad. I would have to reboot the modem to get everything working temporarily again until the same problems reoccur. Then I got 1/3 the speed I paid for, my ISP came out, checked the line and found that this modem/router was actually being used. I called Linksys and they offered to trade it in for a new one, which I almost did until I went back and…

Do not buy -- Poor reliability

Overall: This device has poor reliability -- it keeps disconnecting and has to restart. This device also has a shorter signal range than the cable modem provided by Comcast Xfinity. I've spent hours with Linksys customer service but they haven't been able to improve the situation. I will return the device and look for a different brand. Background: I bought a new Revain CG7500 modem router (with my own money - this is not a paid test) about 2 months ago (June 2017) to replace the Comcast…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • May not fit all

Puma 6 chipsets, do not buy

is available. It has incorrect "Puma 6 chipsets" information that causes frequent WiFi disconnects. Details can be found in the Google Puma 6 chipset class action lawsuit How many modems/routers are affected, see wikiDevi for the Arris SB6190.

Great modem and router.

after a week of use. I don't know why too many people left bad reviews for this modem router. I received this modem router last week. Configuration was as easy as peeling pears, literally in 2 minutes. And then everything worked out. I have 4 iPhones, 2 Androids, 1 PS4, 1 PC, 2 Chromecasts connected to our two TVs. and i also have a comcast streaming box, 1 cctv dvr hardwired. My kids watch Netflix, my son plays PS4. What I'm trying to say is that we make this router work really hard. Internet…

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Can I add some more

I installed this router about a month ago. easy installation, stable performance, and works with a Cable Co modem/WAP device. Keep that last star open for improvement. I would like to see a better user interface and some more "advanced" features in it. Next to? Reliable device! Update: 7/12/2019 - Still working but has freezing and disconnecting issues that require occasional reboots. This product still works with the original firmware and if you are trying to find ANY information about it…

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

This modem/router has BIG Wi-Fi connectivity issues

Like other commenters, this cable modem and router is rubbish. We have some devices that can connect to the wireless network with no problem, but none of our Android phones can ever establish a persistent connection. They connect and disconnect after a few seconds. Sometimes they connect but after a few minutes there is no internet although they are still connected. The Xbox will connect just fine, and the Google Home, Fire TV, and Alexa Echo all seem to connect just fine, but even those have…

Pros
  • Brilliantly rendered
Cons
  • Long wait
