The product arrived in a very nice box. Split case glossy package that was well formed to protect the product and of course attractive. Upon separating both halves and opening there say what appeared to look identical to my previous model however it is not. Upon closer inspection this is the new Docsis 3.1 well
raved about online. You will first notice two gigabit ports. This is where the Con is and it also applies to
BUY NOWevery other brand D-3.1 modem on the market with multiple E-net ports. You may only choose one. Attempting to use two will cause ISP confusion and your devices will not function properly. You would need your provider to assign another ISP address to the second port and some may or may not opt for this feature or may charge an additional $10/mo fee. Since it is also not wireless you will need to provide your own wireless router and any sub Ethernet network ports if you choose to multiply incoming/outgoing connections. The Pros are obvious this beast is insanely fast. Even with my iPhone I am getting 500mb/s download speeds and 40 mb/s upload speeds which is a hardware limitation at my end although it is ridiculously fast compared to most people’s standard home hardware. These speeds eliminate all buffering issues with streaming, and allow ultra fast downloading of very large files for you IT guys. For the price I recommend the Arris SB8620 and if your service offers higher speeds to consider using this model even for 250, or 400 mb/s speeds it will be more true to those speeds than its predecessor SB6190.
