I have had this modem for almost 2 months now, and i have not had any issues with the modem. It replaced a Motorola MB8611 modem that I was constantly having issues with and having to reset it multiple times a week. I finally had enough, and decided to take it back and exchange it since I had the extended warranty. Overall set up was easy, i just had to register it with my internet provider through the app for my internet provider. After it was registered with my internet provider it was smooth sailing from there. I did have to use the cord that came with my router that i also bought at the same time. Please see the review on that here. Overall I feel like buying the Arris SURFboard S33 was a good choice, and so far no issues with speed or the performance of it. Both are important because I work from home for work, and so speed and performance are both important. When i was going to purchase this modem, i did research and found that for the price that I paid for the modem, it was the fastest modem that i could get because it supports up to 2.5GBps as long as you have a router that supports 2.5GBps which I do, I will talk about that in my router review linked above. The modem is small and isnt too big so its not real noticeable, the only thing is that it is white and not black so it doesn’t blend in too well with all my other electronics. That doesnt really bother me though as long as it works and i dont have to constantly reset it to make it work.
