Review: INTRODUCING THE ARRIS G20 CABLE MODEM ROUTER COMBO! YOU HAVE FOUND YOUR MODEM! ☑️ - Hello fellow desertcart Prime members! I wanted to give a review on the Arris G20 Cable Modem Router Combo and I must say, this modem is AMAZING! I was doing a lot of research for the past few months because I needed a newer modem to be able to do the things I wanted to do. This modem by Arris offers all that and more! The installation was super easy! I have Xfinity and setting it up through Xfinity app was a breeze! Even though the Arris G20 looks small, it packs a punch delivering robust speeds to the internet with it's Wifi 6 technology! This modem gives you both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz! The key features I was looking for in a modem was "would I be able to control it through the Arris Surfboard app itself" and it does! I can't begin to tell you all the other reviews I read on other brands and models that people was not happy with! Before buying this model, I had purchased a Motorola MG8702 and it was a fail for me, no network support, no ability to control settings through the app, nothing, lol! Then comes along the Arris G20 Surfboard! You can set up profiles for your entire family and this is really helpful if you have kids! You can set time limits, add their gadgets, turn the internet off and on when you need to and just simple to use parental controls all through the app! All in all, this is a really good modem, you won't be disappointed! Ok, time for some NFL NFC AFC Championship 🏆 Football Sunday💪🏈 Thank you desertcart🥳 Ok, have to go guys! Have a wonderful, safe and blessed day! ☺️🙏
Review: Worked great for 58 days - then it didn't - Thanks Comcast - UPDATE 3 ************** You can read my sad tale below if you choose. But a quick summary may suffice. I got the SB8200 and it worked for 58 days. It then stopped working. It was replaced by Arris but the second modem did not work, either. That modem was replaced by Arris and the third modem did not work. The odds of getting three bad modems were pretty near zero so attention turned to Comcast. A tech came out and confirmed that the SNR was way low and the signal levels were out of bounds. He ran a new cable to the Comcast distribution box and installed a new splitter. The third modem connected immediately and worked perfectly. The fact that my old modem (not a docsis 3.1) worked had initially suggested that the problem was the new modem instead of the Comcast line. Arris support was GREAT through all this. I got right through to a live tech after about 3-5 rings (after their voice menu system answered and directed my call). They replaced the modems quickly (I had to send old modem back via ground - free return shipping - but they sent replacement modem via next day delivery). This is some of the best support of any company I deal with. It is pretty much the opposite of Comcast where getting to a live agent can be very difficult. This review was originally a 2 star but is now a 5 star - and I would give Arris support 6 stars if I could. ORIGINAL POST ********************* I have had this modem for 58 days. It was working well connected to Xfinity. Good download speed. Then, today it became intermittent. It ran for a couple of minutes, then lost internet connection, then was back but at slower download speed. Then it was running fine. That pattern continued to repeat. I had hoped it was an Xfinity issue, but I reconnected my previous modem and everything is working just fine. Before purchase I had read the bad reviews, but there were way more good reviews so I hoped that I would be one of those customers that got a "good one". Nope. Besides EVERY modem I looked at had about the same number of bad reviews. Many saying - don't buy this. So what is one to do? UPDATE ************** I contacted Arris customer support. I got through to a tech IMMEDIATELY. He said they needed to check the modem while it was online. Since I had already installed by backup modem, I had to contact Comcast and switch my MAC address back to the Arris and get in connected. I then called Arris back and again was connected to a tech, immediately. The reason this is a 2 star rather than a 1 star is because of the ease of contacting support. The tech looked at the modem stats and agreed it was bad. After a 5 minute delay while he consulted with a supervisor, he approved my return of the modem. He emailed me a prepaid shipping label and said they would send a new modem to me as soon as they received the old one back. So what Arris may lack in quality, they do mostly make up for in good customer support. Realistically, any product can fail, so the experience in dealing with a failed product is an important part of the buying process. Arris support gets 4 stars from me - one star off for making me reinstall the modem so they can verify it was bad. Though that was a perfectly reasonable request from them, I had pretty good evidence of my assertion that it was their modem which was the issue. Update 2 ********** I got the replacement modem. I spent about 90 minutes on the phone with Xfinity and Arris customer support trying to get that modem working with Xfinity. We could not get the modem to work - it seemed like it was working for a few seconds here and there. So I am sending this replacement back and will get yet another replacement (for the replacement). Hopefully the 3rd times the charm.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this modem have a wps button to set up tp-link wifi extenders?**
A: No, this does not have the WPS button. Please note that this device is a cable modem only and does not have an inbuilt wifi

**Q: How often is the software updated to stay in tune with Spectrum?**
A: I have Spectrum. They did the initial firmware push to my router when I first called them to add it to the account and hooked it up. So far, it looks like they do not have to push firmware updates to this every other day causing it to shut down like their refurbished equipment they hand out. So far, not a single drop in quality or connectivity 3 months running now. The Spectrum issued equipment was constantly losing connections and rebooting(all 12 boxes I got from them before I got fed up and did my own equipment). This is central florida, so not sure how reliable Spectrum is in your area.

**Q: Is this compatible with xfinity triple play?**
A: No, Triple Play includes an IP phone that plugs into your router.  Not sure if you can move your "wired" phone number to Comcast. This modem will not provide you with their phone service. Comcast will rent you a modem, wireless and IP phone router for $$$ a month.  There are only a few of these boxes that support Comcast IP phones, they are over $300 to purchase.  Plus, with triple play, you will pay the FCC a 911 charge of $15 or more a year. I have triple play but bought this modem and Ooma to transfer my "home" phone number for about $5 a month.  Need to tell that company after 30 days you want just the basic service.

**Q: Is it compatable with wifi 6**
A: This modem does not include Wi-Fi, but the Ethernet output can feed into a Wifi 6 router

*by M***U on January 15, 2026*

The most important thing: It works. Our old Modem was going kaput and we needed a replacement. We checked with our Internet Provider to make sure it would be compatible. This was the one they recommended over all others. It was easy to hook up and the price was good. The signal is strong and reaches further than the old modem. 4 months since purchase and there have been no problems. We are very satisfied.
