Title: Works perfectly with Comcast great combo modem and router.
Review: Great unit, setup was easy I called comcast when I put in my order for internet and gave them the MAC address ahead of time. Because I have no cell service only wifi calling at the location I installed this unit too I wanted to make sure they had all the info setup ahead of time . So I showed up to where I was installing this which was my remote camp. I connected my cable plugged it in all the lights went solid blue! Perfect! Than to verify with comcast like they make you do I took a laptop connected to the default wifi network the unit was broadcasting. It Connected perfectly. Than I Opened a browser the Comcast setup screen was right there. I logged on Comcast it said successful and to wait while modem reboots. It rebooted twice and bam all done. Easiest new setup I have ever done! I subscribed to comcast 400mbps plan and my download on the 5ghz channel is consistently between 460-480mbps. I attached and image of my speedtest results Lightning fast! Wifi range is adequate for me and better than my previous router. The arris setup is easy to get to by going to 196.168.0.1. Log in And its all there. Whatever issues people had provisioning this model on comcast are now a thing of the past. Setup was easy, speed is better than what I bought , wifi range is excellent and the router settings are easily accessible. Overall 5 stars!

Title: This is quite simply: LIFE CHANGING
Review: This is quite simply: LIFE CHANGING.I moved away from the Comcast supplied modem/router about 4 years ago. I purchased the Arris Surfboard SB6121 and the TP-Link AC-1200. I had one Wi-Fi extender. For reasons that I cannot explain, I endured years of terrible and slow connections - regardless if I was using my smartphone, or my Apple TV. My laptop computer rarely worked. My Roku TV always disconnected. The more connections I needed to make, the more I realized it was a disaster and needed replaced. It was time for a change!Then I discovered the Arris Surfboard (32x8) AC2350. My life has changed. I donât use the 5 GHZ band as the signal is weaker. As an extra step, I hardwired my Apple TV. Every Wi-Fi connection is PERFECT. The aforementioned iPhone, Roku TV and laptop work perfectly. I do need the WIFI extender anymore. Everything is FASTER. I get no connection problems. My wired connections are flawless.This is absolutely worth every penny. Everyone is happy.

Title: Worried about the PUMA chipset failure
Review: I updated my system in 2020 with this modem/ router sbg-760-0ac2. It has worked quite well for us with a lot of devices attached, but we had slow internet in this area - no fast speeds avail. I recently was able to finally get faster speeds and had to completely reset this modem to try to ensure the fast speeds are working. It would not let me log in - I finally pressed "apply" vs. "login" when entering admin/password and finally it worked. In the meantime I had been searching for web advice and came across the PUMA CHIP problem in this device which causes failures in a few ways. So just keeping my fingers crossed this will continue to work well for me, and with the higher speed I have upgraded to with my provider.

Title: Easy to set up and made a huge difference in download speed
Review: The SBG7600AC2 works great with Xfinity, and setting it up was a simple phone call to Xfinity support. They asked for the MAC address from the back of the modem and it started working almost immediately.Logging in and going through the config menus is pretty straightforward. It is pre-configured enough that you don't even have to log in to start using it but when you inevitably want to customize things the menus are well laid out. Well, mostly... One thing I definitely do not like is the "Operation" tab at the top of the menu. Clicking it takes you out of the nice, polished looking interface to a clunky ascii look interface. On top of that you have to log in again because it is a completely separate interface on the modem. On the 6700 the info could all be accessed from the admin page, not sure why they had to break it up here. It's a minor complaint though, in an otherwise solid interface.I got the SBG7600AC2 to replace an SBG6700AC at the same time as I upgraded my Xfinity service from 300Mbps to a 600Mbps package. The 6700 only has 8 bonded download channels which theoretically maxes out at 343Mbps while the 7600 has 32 bonded channels and maxes out at 600Mbps. The old modem pretty consistently got 150Mbps download, the SBG6700AC gets nearly 500Mbps download using the speedtest website, a huge improvement. It's not the 600Mbps my package claims but I attribute that to the fact that I have 6 computers, a couple of tablets, smart TVs, phones, etc. all hogging up bandwidth.With 4 - 1Gb ethernet ports, 2.4ghz and 5ghz wifi and file sharing + media server capabilities from the built in USB, this is a really solid modem.
Customers say
Customers like the functionality, ease of setup, and speed of the product. They mention it works well, the software they provide to configure the unit is outstanding, and the speed is as promised. Some appreciate the build quality. However, some dislike the reboot rate. Opinions are mixed on the wifi signal and value for money.
