This was a horrible one. Connection kept dropping 3 , 4 times a day. I had to resort to renting the modem from Comcast. Wasted the $80 I spent on this. This is just lying at home now..I waited for 2 months to see, if this gets better, and then of course the returnable period expired. That's a price to pay for buying online, you don;t want to take the hasselle of returning rightaway. :-(

If your question refers to Wi-Fi, the answer is NO! This modem is not Wi-Fi ready. YOU will need a router connected to the modem to access a wireless Wi-Fi connection.

I have this DSL modem/router. It is for phone internet (internet through the phone company) and not cable router (through cable company). I had trouble setting it up... come to find out it was the phone company's issue... they connected my internet to a second line! Other than that... the device has worked spectacularly. No issues!

It worked for my Atlantic Broadband. Call Time Warner Customer Service and they will tell you what you need to know to replace their supplied modem that you rent or are offered to purchase for a larger sum of money than you will pay for a used or refurbished one!

I have otimum cable modem now, but also used a wireless clear modem and it worked fine either way.

No, this modem is for high-speed DSL use only. You would need a modem that specifies "cable." Your internet service provider won't accept any modem so your best bet is to call them or look up on their website for compatible cable modems, so that you get the best (and fastest) internet experience possible. This modem is more a headache than anything, I wouldn't bother. Check out Netgear cable modems for a good start.

It will work great. I have mine set up a mile apart with several large concrete buildings in the middle and it gets a perfect signal with no data loss.

If it is transmitting 5ghz then yes it should work, On the Ubiquiti site you can find a link to their company supported forum. There are many easy to follow instructions on settings for this device. I use a pair to transmit internet from a comcast modem to my boat router. It's 320' away and I get 41mps down with over 8 up. There are a lot of variables available in the settings. I'm sure you can configure it to do this.

It's a DocSys 3 modem, so it supports very high speeds, yes. Not sure what you mean about range. This is not a wireless router, it's just a modem. You can certainly plug a router into it though.

It should work well for either. Im using the one that I bought here on a cable connection, but the one at my office is the same router, brand new not refurbished...and that connection is DSL.

The one that I had purchased did not work with Comcast for me. I was on the phone with them for well over an hour & the bottom line in my application it was a NO GO. It did not work & I bought another brand & it was golden. I bought this brand/model... Arris Tm722g Cable Modem Docsis 3.0However & do not believe & spent that much...

I have one of these in my home connected to a router that is connected to my cable modem. It works very well and was easy to setup.

Yes, I use the modem on high speed connection. It's a bit clunky, but it works just fine for the purpose intended. I use it to send faxes.

I would stay away from this one. I found with Windows 7, that you have to unplug and replug this one in to get it to work again. I believe it could be with the right software, but it is very unreliable, unsupported, and doesn't work most of the time. I recommend find a different modem.

I bought the Arris TM802G from Amazon because Comcast said I had to have a Doc Sis 3.0 telephony modem. Comcast said they weren't able to support this modem. I told Comcast that I was using it just for phone and cable and they were able to install it over the phone. It should work for Internet as well.

From what I was told, No....it will not accept that high of a speed...it's a "2" modem....you would need a "3"

this is NOT a range extender, this a WIFI Router it has to be connected directly to the modem with a LAN cable to work.

Depends on what service you have. The type of modem is different for DSL vs. Cable vs. Gateway (a modem that allows for phone service). Also, some modems work with some providers and not others: Verizon vs. Comcast vs. Other. Once you answer the first issue, you can narrow down a host of good modems (except for Gateways--there aren't too many good ones of those out there). Then you can compare the modem with the provider's compatibility lists. What service provider do you have and what kind of modem type do you need?
