Enjoy multi-Gig internet connections while saving money on equipment rental fees with the SURFboard S33 2.5G DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem from ARRIS . Featuring 32x8 DOCSIS 3.1 technology, this modem is designed to support up to 2.5G cable internet plans from most major U.S. service providers, including Cox, Comcast Xfinity, and Charter Spectrum. Connect multi-Gig compatible devices such as routers to the 2.5G Ethernet port for smooth video streaming, online gaming, and file transfer experiences. There is also a one Gigabit port available for other wired network equipment.

Match the router's capabilities to your home's square footage and your ISP's internet speed. For homes over 2500 sq ft or with multiple floors, mesh systems are far superior to single high-powered routers. Available from $199.
Routers have an extremely low cost of ownership, drawing minimal continuous power. There are no consumables, and hardware generally lasts until technological obsolescence requires an upgrade.
Common Failure Modes
