Lightning Fried Cable Box Modem And Router

I bought this unit to replace a Motorola modem/router that had been fried by a lightning strike. The Night Hawk was easy to install and connect and provides excellent coverage throughout our 3000 sq. ft. house.

I had a Aris modem and Netgear Nighthawk Router. During a recent powersurge, the Aris modem fried and the Nighthawk router survived and was operational. I purchased the joint cable modem and router product. So far, this product is working great.

Needless to say, lightning does take out cable modems even on a surge protector. Mine would not work after being fried so I bought the same brand only to have the model not in working order when it arrived. I saw that I already had a NETGEAR router so decided to make it a pair with the cable modem. Have had no problems since installation. Only wish that the owners manual would be included in the box.

The Netgear cable modem provides 1000mbs to my router just like it says!

Using for cable modem, router, and IOT hub.

This modem was a replacement for a unit damaged by a lightning strike which took out our router as well. The router is the Netgear AC1900. Both work extremely well and are super fast compared to our devices.

This is exactly what I was looking for, a 2-in-1 Wifi Cable Modem Router. It's very affordable and dependable. It's fantastic.

the netgear Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router that replaced our 9 yr old router works great super fast.

Bought a router and modem to replace my cable providers one. Router was easy to set up and get a WiFi signal everywhere in the house single story 1600sq. Download the app makes it easy to change your settings without needing to get on to a computer

Fast Router. Feels like a quality made product, more like an industrial or enterprise product feel. I have my SB8200 cable modem on eth0, home office on eth1, and Linksys mesh network on eth2. It took me about 30 mins to setup being new to this type of router. Used basic wizard to setup. Made sure NAT was enabled. Firewall is enabled. I had to reset cable modem to get things going. I used various videos on you tube for setup help. Router CPU and RAM barely get used during testing of several 4K Video Streams, ip phone calls, file transfers, and speed tests running at the same time. My COX gigablast connection runs at full speed most of the time. I still need to do some real throughput testing, machine to machine on local network. I use Airflow and VLC to cast 4K content from home office to my living room entertainment center. I definitely noticed a time difference. It simply takes less time for actions to engage and finish. I can tell it has a better brain. Time will tell with reliability but I suspect it will be my router for a long time. So far, I'm happy with its performance.
