I’ve had this router for like 6 years and it’s working pretty well. I get great numbers wired but about half to a third wireless. My suggestion if your buying something now is to get something with WiFi 6. This router uses the older WiFi 5 technology.
Good to know! Thanks for sharing! :)
Wish i found this vid before i bothered with tech support, very helpful and informative
Thank you for your review. This information you provided and reviews on Amazon (ignored the less adept sounding reviews there!) cemented my thoughts into a purchase.
Glad it was helpful! :)
Thank you for the video very helpful. I’m looking to upgrade so I’m comparing a lot of devices and I’m convinced this one is the one for me. Thank you.
Thanks for the vid! Just bought this moments prior so this was useful knowing what to expect
Glad I could help!
This modem is a reliable device but if you wanna squeeze the most out of it id suggest playing around with some settings like your wifi channel, i just changed my DNS server from my ISP to cloudflare's IPv4 1.1.1.1 and their IPv6 DNS resolver and my ping averages 9ms and that's great for online multiplayer lol
Ooo thanks for sharing! :)
Does the modem have to be near my ps4
Can you explain this in a way a child can grab an idea of what this means
How did you do it.
101 download speed is NOT very fast.
Excellent video! Thanks for helping me choose this product!
Thanks for reviewing this product, I am looking to upgrade. This video was a Big Help👍
Glad it was helpful! Hope you like it! :)
Despite being a device that is fairly old. It still was a worthy upgrade for my 1600s/ft house.
My plan is 200mbs and I get that on a solid connection. But my wifi achieves 100/180 even when I have 4 smart TVs, 4 phones and 3 laptops connected. I didn't even think that was physically possible.
In fact I know it's not. What gives?
yeah who knows but cant complain :)
Good night. I just bought mine but am kind of a navis when it comes to technologies .when i plug the yellow cord to netgear where do i go from there what do i attach it to?
You should be able to plug it to the computer you are using, if you are using the ethernet cable.
I'm looking into buying one of these but I'm a bit of a perfectionist. Is it best to buy a router/modem combo like this or get a router and modem seperate? Also is it compatable with a phone line?
I prefer to use combo, but up to you at the end of the day. But yes you should be able to use with phone line.
Do u have to have a cable plan in order to use it
@@traplord-mq5dl Yes. What buying this does is cut your bill down since you dont rent theirs
does the router work with at&t, if so how do i connect it to at&t
Do you need an internet service provider ?? Can’t I just use cable tv, via coax cable?????
What if you live in the middle of nowhere. I’ve never had a modem or router or satellite. I only use my cellular data. What should I do get the modem first?
I would contact your service provider for assistance, I havent experienced that before so not sure.
I got the landline phone service too, could you please tell me what do I need to connect it to this cable router. Thanks
I believe you can plug in your landline coax cable into the device to use it. But I would contact your service provider for help to double check.
I have Spectrum. How do I set it up to work with my Spectrum account? I'm upgrading my modem router combo.
You should be able to connect it then add it to the app.
Do you need to put that cable cord in the modem to be able to get internet? If so how do you get a new cord running through the wall?
I believe so. I would suggest contacting a professional if you are unsure or maybe search for a how to video on youtube. I myself am not quite sure. :(
I agree with worthit, im 98% sure you need the cable for internet too.
Recommend for plans up to 1000 mbps?
Would it be worth buying this instead of An x6 router and adding that to my existing xfinity modern?
I havent tried that router before, so no 100% sure but I would recommend trying this one out.
Is this strong enough router/modem for me to use for streaming on twitch? Planning to stream in 1080 60fps for my ps5
I want to say yes but it also depend on your internet provider and plan as well!
Id say check for upload speed to. Routers and ISP plans seem to focus download speed and ignore upload, upload helps with live streaming more than other uses of the internet.
@@winterwraith8339 thank you
Did it end up working for your twitch ?
@@RoyalToughness havnt really streamed but I tested it with my Xbox series X and it worked
Is it better to have a separate modem and router, than using the combo?
It depends on your situation. Some might need one or the other and some need both. I prefer combo.
Does it matter if you connect it to the 5G or the regular WiFi?
Dont think so but then not sure about 5G since I dont use that yet.
Can you help me... my wi fi name keeps clicking off showing no internet and i need to keep on reloading the Router every single time even if i hit on the button on the router. This happens throughout the day especially when I play movies or games. My speed is at 50/50
I actually have the same issue sometimes and I just forget the network and reconnect and it works fine. Not sure why this issue occurs
I’m confused i have an xfinity modem/router and I have no coax cable in my room and I’m trying to get my net gear router my room can I use wireless doing that or only wired
I believe you would need a coax cable. I havent tried without yet.
I’m hoping this is a upgrade to my router issued from my company I pay for 1 gig and get like 400/500 down max wired
Its save you so much money.
@@IsitWorthit1 my internet provider said this router was too old I needed a 3.1 got the artis surfboard and it works amazing 400 download on my phone don’t think my ps5 has a speed test like Xbox so I can’t check wired anymore
On PS5 network settings, click "test network connection" and you'll get a simple speed test. @@SleezyBeams
I live in north macedonia and can i use this modem here ? My internet provider have cable internet.
I would check with your internet provider to double check.
I just purchased the Nighthawk CAX30 AX2700. Will you be doing a review on it as well? Is it a better setup or the same as this unit? Thank you for your time.
Will keep that product in my list of to do products. If I ever decide to do video for the product you will see it here :)
I need help!!!!! So I want to get this. I'm a teenager and have a job and know that my parents' service is an unlimited plan and it's xfinity. If I get this, will I receive the performance that this modem offers?
I use this with my xfinity plan and it works fine! So you can definitely use this as well! Link in description to learn more!
@@IsitWorthit1 thanks bro
I am paying for 1 gig speed xFinity internet when my download speed caps at like 65mbps on my pc hardwired in. What am I doing wrong?
I would try to contact the company regarding this. It seems like something that needs to be done with them.
Do you have to get a SIM card for it and buy an unlimited plan in order to get unlimited usage? I just moved to a rural area, trying to get internet where there are no providers, I’m new to this
I personally use this for internet and wifi for my computers or laptop. Not quite sure what you can do if you don't have any service provider. Im sure you would need to find some kind of internet provider to use it from what i know.
@@IsitWorthit1 I was thinking I could buy the modem/router and buy a SIM card to plug into it in addition to an unlimited data plan. Then Activate the data plan on the SIM card and use that for unlimited home internet. I have heard it’s more consistent than a hotspot but I’m not sure. I realize now this modem does not have a place for SIM cards so it will not work but I am still researching
I have a Cat6 Ethernet. We just ordered this modem. So if I connect this to my pc without WiFi and just Ethernet Will my speeds be 400mbps atleast
I would say try it first to see, because everyone network and location is different.
I wanted to switch from xfinity to Netgear cable but not work.
Why not? I’m sure there should be some modem/ router that should work
Do you have any problems now what’s up router modem if you ask let me know
No issues yet, and good speed. Also better wifi distance coverage compared to my old one.
Gonna hook this bad baby up and see what it does, very helpful video thank you l!
Welcome! Glad I could help! Hope you like the product!
How did it go
@@creation7287 well worth it and easy setup with the app definitely recommend it
@@demonetizedcontent1809 that's good to hear. I'm thinking about buying it but I'm scared about the range and latency. Do you know how many square feet your home is? What's your internet speed and do you play ps4 or pc
@@creation7287 honestly I’m not sure but it reaches pretty far haven’t had any problems out of it
I love how you talk it’s cute
Thanks :)
What if your not with a provider can I still use it
Hmmm not sure if it will work. You can always try and if it doesnt work you can return on Amazon.
Can you use a cat 7 or 8 Ethernet cable on it ?
You can definitely use it but I recommend using CAT 6, which is what I’m using.
No such thing as a Cat 7 cable using RJ45. Cat 7 requires different connectors and equipment.
Is this compatible with fiber optics ?
I think so? But not sure as I dont have fiber.
How install this device ?
very good review thanx a lot
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching! :)
Will it work if you have Verizon
Not sure. I use a different provider.
Btw Mb is megabits, not megabytes which is MB. A Mb is 1/8 of an MB
Noted! Thanks for pointing out!
Would you get the aires sbg10
havent tried that one yet.
Thanks sir for this because i need a modem i have a netgear AC1200
You are welcome! Thanks for watching :)
Does it have Geo-Filter?
uhh not sure.
@@IsitWorthit1 It doesn't
I have this router and it keeps disconnecting from the internet I have to keep resetting the router constantly. also I can not find any way to update the router or even updates for it. I wish I never purchased this junk.
Have you try to contact the brand or assistance?
Thanks!
No problem! Thanks for watching! :)
After 4 months not connecting WiFi anymore. Cox cable service guy said that was a lot happen C7000v2 . Don’t buy .
Hmmm I havent experience this yet. Hopefully I don't but thanks for sharing.
what if i dont have cable tv or wifi
Wifi comes with this modem router combo. I think all modems are cable type , but you can talk with someone from a internet company like Xfinity Comcast, AT&T, Verizon. Most likely, a internet company may have to come to your location to run a cable setup before you can connect a modem like this, and there will be a cost involved. Some companies your data speed may not be as fast, so shop around beford you choose one.
Idk why my brother has this and also a wifi modem. Do i even need the wifi modem? Lol
How do you turn off WiFi. It sucks. I want add a real WiFi router
Maybe get a different device if you wanted to add your own wifi router?
3:03 you said funny word
Oops :(
Ty
Welcome!
That would be Megabits, not Megabytes!!
Noted! Sorry for the inconvenience.
I'm only getting 195 mbps with mine
I would check with your provider and the connection. Do note that using wifi wil be slower than cable connection.
It can’t keep up with 400 gib. I’m getting 150. Gib.
:(
Change your modem setting to 5ghz, and it will run blazing fast ,if it is connected and updated properly.
For anyone wondering. This nergear model is total ass fail. Drops like every hr. Go with the new motorola router/modems. Just google netgear c7000 problems. Literally just pages upon pages of diconnect and drop problems.even the v2 sucks. Netgear is no longer reliable.
I havent experience this issue yet but thanks for sharing, will definitely look out for that issue.
I started experiencing this issue as well after only 5 months of use, connection lost frequently/randomly
@@josmarcortez1391 Me too I'm trying to fix it. My console is right next to it and delayed and lag.
Lol...what was your upload?
You mean upload speed?
I get around 5-15 mbps.
@LW Dewaileds yes sadly :(
do i need a router
I recommend using 2 in 1 router/ cable modems
Wuts with the ghetto hat?
