Spectrum Router No Ethernet Cable Port

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Connectivity is great! The 3.1 modem is on point with delivering over the 1000/35 I'm subscribed to when using an Ethernet cable every single time. Wifi is good too. The 2.4 signal covers my 1800 square foot home perfectly, even without the satellite. Adding the satellite, I can use my own wifi at my mother-in-law's house next door (believe it or not, I love her being my neighbor lol). The 5 signal doesn't reach quite as far, but it still covers the house well, and on it, I hit about 800/30 in almost all areas of my house including the back yard! Pro's that have specific VPN and/or other advanced needs, this combo will do most, but definitely do your research prior to purchase if you fall into this category! The Orbi App is SOLID. Again, nothing too advanced, but absolutely meets every expectation I'd have of any other brand's app and then some. I'd almost forgotten to mention setup; it's so easy. I connected the power and coaxial cable (not provided), connected via an Ethernet cable, Spectrum automatically detected the modem and asked me to sign into my online account (Spectrum's activation took about 10 minutes), scanned the QR code on the front of the modem using my phone's camera, setup a password, changed the wifi name and password to something I like, and that was that. It took a total of 13 minutes (including Spectrum's 10) to do it all start to finish. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase and experience. I'd recommend this product to anyone looking for fast, consistent, and easy internet and wifi!

This TP-Link ER7206 router was purchased to replace an ancient D-Link DGL-4100 router that still worked but which no longer maintained full throughput and which didn't support IPv6. Both of these routers have built-in 4-port Ethernet switches. When it comes to Ethernet routers, my needs are quite simple and the ER7206 meets those needs perfectly. So far it seems to be performing flawlessly. The router is being fed by a cable modem (550 Mbps downstream and 22 Mbps upstream) and has a computer, color laser printer, smart TV, and Wi-Fi Access Point (AP) connected to it. The AP has a built-in 4-port switch to which a Blu-ray Disc player is connected. The router was directly connected to a computer for setup purposes and the process was straightforward. I did update the firmware, which is always a good idea since some fixes may be security related. If your needs are as simplistic as mine, then I highly recommend that you consider this product.

Bought two of these router (the other one using as an extender for now). The 2nd unit I am using it as extender, but has the flexibility of connecting ethernet port for future needs.

This is what I need. I want this device to connect to the wireless network (at hotel, etc) and provide me with an ethernet port. I will then connect an Amplifi Instant Router the the ethernet port on this TP-Link RE600X and provide me with my own private network. The Amplifi Instant Router will easily connect to my AmplifI HD router at home and create a VPN connection that can be used by any devices I travel with to give those devices access to my home network.

Pug and play, simply as that. My mesh WiFi router has only two ethernet port. This switch solved the problem to hard-wire my Roku box, play stations etc., to the router

Went from using the Spectrum modem/router combo to the Orbi. Should have done this a long time ago. No more WiFi issues and the speed is 20x faster and way more coverage in the house! Love it!!

Had standard cable modem/router from spectrum. This one is much better (build and performance)! Setup was easy and flawless!

This works fine on my Spectrum cable account. Just one note you should know when attaching a wireless router to it: from my experimentation and the info I finally found on the Internet, once a router is plugged into one of the rear RJ45 ports, no other devices can be plugged in. So, that means the other three are just there for looks. This would've been nice to know if the device contained worthwhile documentation, which it doesn't.

Had spectrum modem (ugh) and Netgear router. Cut cable and added a Netgear modum. Easy set up and connection.

Super easy setup I used Ethernet to my router. Followed instructions. No problems. Prints beautifully. Using it for architectural drawings.
