Review: As an IT Pro, there are three main areas that I look for in a quality piece of network gear. Ease of installation, functionality, and stability. If these are 5 stars, then I will rarely, if ever, have to rely on the vendor support team. This Nighthawk CAX30 is excellent in all three categories. While this is a retail product, and I did install it at my house, I do work from home, so it’s every bit as important to me as any high end network core switch! Why? Because I have to have all the same reliability, throughput, and stability as when I am in the office building. I have gone through many DocSis modems over the last 25 years. Motorola and Arris have had the market share, but I always found them to be challenging to get activated, less than stable (needing to be reboot regularly), and usually would only last about 2-3 years before needing replaced. Enter the CAX30! I’ve used a lot of Netgear products in the past, but never their Cable Modems. Until now! I don’t know why I never tried them? I guess just thinking Motorola and Arris had the market share for a reason. Boy don’t I feel stupid!? This product was gravy to install, integrated seamlessly with my mesh wireless, and has been stable and serving up gigabit speeds ever since I fired it up and got it configured. And since my wife works on the same network, it was critical that I get that Motorola replaced quickly! The CAX30 did not disappoint. Take me at my word, this cable modem is everything advertised and then some. I’ll gladly post anything negative that occurs, but thus far, I’m getting line speed (1gb) on the Ethernet ports in my home office, I’m getting from .5 - 1gb on WiFi, depending on location throughout the house, and the security footprint on the entire network is the best I’ve seen on a retail device such as this. I actually think I may pay the annual fee for the Armor Plus protection. It’s already caught several DDOS and other attacks on my network that other routers have never been able to identify. I’m very happy with this product and recommend it fully!
Review: We moved recently and got a new internet service provider. While the provider and their service was good, the Modem Router that they rented to us was not. We were having constant DNS errors, sometimes the Router would just reset itself, and we would see significantly lower download rates than we were promised. We tried having them replace it with another rented router but the issues continued. Then I decided to do some research. As someone who games and works from home daily I needed a device that could handle high speeds reliably. Dropping my connection in the middle of a meeting or god forbid a match was not acceptable. Then I saw the prices for your average "High End Router" that does not even come with the modem portion. Buying two $200+ devices was just too much, not to mention the worry of them arriving and not working with eachother or one of them being incompatible with my ISP for some reason. With more research I found Netgear and their very reasonable prices and high end devices. And even more awesome they actually offer a gamer level Modem Router combo. The Nighthawk was the same price as a high end router from other companies and it came with the modem built in. I ordered it and set it up. The instructions included with it were fantastic and I had it up and running in no time. A 10 minute call to my ISP later to activate the device (which the instructions also walk you through) and I was up and running and the fastest speeds I've ever had at any of my homes or with any ISP or device. I'm a few weeks in now and have had zero issues, where as before I was having network troubles every couple of days. 5 stars for sure. No complaints at all. The range of the wifi is also very impressive. I'm able to walk a good 200 feet away from my house and still have wifi on my cellphone. And I love the Nighthawk app that you can manage it with from your cellphone. It lets me check the devices on my network with a touch and disconnect any that shouldn't be there. Great stuff netgear, very happy with my purchase.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I see many ppl asking about a router and answers say “modem only” but the description says wifi modem combo. what am i missing?**
A: The confusion is due to the illogical way Amazon links questions and answers to products. There are several different products listed on this one product page. Some are just modems, others are modem/router combos. Unfortunately, all the different products on this page share the same questions and answers which aren't relevant to one another. If the description on the product you have selected says it's a modem/router combo, then it's a modem/router combo. The people saying it's only a router are answering the question based on the product their viewing or have purchased.

This is a problem that effects many products throughout the Amazon site.

**Q: can a phone line be added to this unit?**
A: There isn't a phone jack, per se, but you can use any Ethernet service like Obi200 (provided they don't do any 'Mandatory upgrades' Shenanigans, again) and Google Voice. It works perfectly, just you gotta use ethernet and not phone line/Cable company provided Junk.

**Q: Is this router quiet/almost silent?**
A: I don't hear it.  The fans inside to cool it are quiet.  Not like a Comcast DVR that you can hear from another room.  You can even disable lights from flashing so it won't stand out.

**Q: Does this support MoCA?**
A: No, it does not support MoCA.

I recently upgraded from my Spectrum-provided router to the **Netgear Nighthawk Modem Router Combo**, and the difference is night and day! The Nighthawk delivers **blazing-fast speeds**, rock-solid reliability, and far better coverage throughout my home. **What I Love:** ✔ **Faster Speeds** – My internet is noticeably quicker, with no more lag during streaming or gaming. ✔ **Stronger Wi-Fi Coverage** – Dead zones are gone! Even my backyard gets a solid signal now. ✔ **Easy Setup** – The Nighthawk was simple to install, and the app makes managing my network a breeze. ✔ **Saves Money** – No more renting a modem/router from my ISP—this pays for itself over time. ✔ **Reliable Performance** – No random drops or slowdowns, even with multiple devices connected. If you’re using a basic ISP router, **do yourself a favor and upgrade to the Nighthawk**. It’s worth every penny for the improved speed, range, and stability. **Highly recommend!
