- bought the Netgear CM1000 because I been tossing around the idea of upgrading to the 1 GB/S internet that is available. Also I have been having issues with getting disconnected from games for a while now and the only thing I havent upgraded was my modem. Hope you like the video!!

You can not run the speed tests together on 2 devices on the same WiFi, cause it is going to split your speed in half on both. Did that not seem weird to you that you were not getting your speeds when you were running the test at the same time on both devices.
Actually you won't... If you have wave 2 wifi with 4x4 mu-Mimo ... You wouldn't have issues... Especially since most tests will jump or jump from one server to another... Depending on tests. Heck wave1 has no issue trying this either. Tested wifi signal at different sites with wave1 and never had issue pulling multiple speed tests.
@@5150GringoGarage you still cut your total bandwidth between the two devices when you do that.
Anyone w even moderate knowledge should know this.
It's always better to test the speed by connecting your machine to Modem directly. This way your machine will get public IP address and there is no NAT translation or intermediary device involved in between. I am glad u tested this way.
I pretty much only recommend buying a modem if you rent from your cable company and don't want to pay to rent it anymore. It's a long game play to eventually make more money. So you drop 200-300 bucks on that modem and then in 2-3 years you end up saving. With that long game in mind its best to buy one that is higher than the speed you got now. So if in 2-3 years you end up going faster you don't have re-buy for example (1 gig probably is high enough for everyone, but you never know right).
Awesome test video!
I didn't know why my ARRIS SurfBoard SB6190 DOCSIS 3.0 1.4GB cable modem (wired) couldn't get the 1GB Comcast speed I upgraded to -- but only 481Mbps (my old 400 Mbps Comcast speed). Now I know. I need a DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem!
Thanks for creating this video. Bravo!
FYI the SB6190 also has a Puma 6 processor... which has a horrible latency issue.
Cringe when you speed test on both
Nigga gtfo.
Idk if you’ve done this but having separate channels in your router will help them not trying to fight to have the same channel. After seeing what channels are being used and seeing a lot of neighbors using channels 1,6,11 I changed them and man am I getting must faster speed
if i already have an xfinity modem in the house can i still have this too?
I got the cm1200 been lost in how to set this thing up with the lack of instructions other than just set it up and connect the modem to a computer doesn't seem to let you connect to any internet even though it says connected. Not sure if I got a dude or you just can't manually activate the device and are forced to call xfinity to set it up?
Super fast internet. Wish I had those kind of speeds maybe ill upgrade.Btw you got some pretty bad ass knife skills.
So only 350Mbps when wireless for the 1GB/s service? What is limiting it?
Just ordered mine can’t wait to get it dialed in
Can i use another cable provider plans on this router?
does the bottom have screw to remove the base plate? so if I want to lay it flat or mount it to a wall.
I just bought this modem to try out, current isp issued model has horrendous service dropouts...probably once or twice an hour... checked all outside connections to make sure they didnt forget to tighten a cable so hopefully this fixes it
Hey man i have the sbg6580 what settings do i have to mess with so i can set it to be just a modem or do i even have to at that, i hear that having the wifi still enabled on it while connecting my router to it will conflict
how long was the wait for the new modem+wifi to get back online after you activated the modem?
\
are you using the nighthawk ac1900 that is (r6900p) or the (r7000). it looks like the r6900p comes with mu mimo so it is much more expensive.
based on your link it looks like you have the more expensive one. do you think the r7000 is good enough to pair with the cm1000. I just need internet to upload game footage. such as high school sports to their Hudl/TH-cam account.
@@5150GringoGarage I got the same ones right now and Best Buy priced matched it to the lower price on amazon. saved myself $100. thanks for the informative video! it helped with my decision making.
Got exactly the same combo Modem + Router. Had Comcast Gigabit speed, was doing 300+ at most connected directly to the router. Changed contract speed to 600 mbps, speed went down to 130. Called Comcast they don't know why this is happening, and changed contract to 200 mbps now doing the same 130. I read a Netgear Modem thread online of people having the same issue in having but no one has a solution it seems it's a Comcast thing I guess, really frustrating.
What is the app called on the phone
So you are not getting that 1gbps on a daily basis since you use wifi for you pc?
probrobly the cable old and maybe router not powerful enough?
Don't you have to "activate" your modem before simply switching it?
Great video!!
Question: Don't know much about modem but I am currently with AT&T internet and my son keep saying his game on ps4 is lagging going the switch internet provider but I going to buy my own modem/router combo, but I see you using a new modem but do I need the flat on with the antennas aswell??
So I paying for Comcast 600 mbps package, but my WiFi top speed with the netgear CM 1000 modem & the AC 1750 router was toping out @ 250 mbps. Hard wired with my cpu and ran test strait from modem speeds @ over 600 mbps. So yes I was getting what I was paying for from comcast. But WiFi speeds fell way below what I was paying for. I expected some drop off but not that much of a difference. So I looked @ doing a modem upgrade, glad I did! Replaced my netgear AC 1750 with a Netgear AX 5200 and now speeds are running @ 450 - 550 mbps. Plus I got a great Black Friday deal of $149 on the modem that regularly sells for $279. And my WiFi speeds are where they should be @ now.
is it still working and what differences with CM1100 netgear 3.1 modem
This one or the or the Motorola MB8600 please answer fast I need to buy one soon.
Thanks
Get the Motorola one. I shoulda got that one but this one is still nice
If I buy this, would I also need the nighthawk for WiFi? I currently have the leased modem and router so I’m wondering if I need both or if I can get away with just the netgear
@@5150GringoGarage thank you!
I need an answer like asap. I got a arris sb6190 modem and it been running for over 2 years and just found out the situation with it. I am looking for new modem as i been having internet slowdowns (unusable). Is this the best one? I been researching the only 3 out and it between this one and arris sb8200. Arris has 3gb ram and this netgear one like 512mb ram I think? What one more future proof? What one more error free and will survive for years? Also I got comcast to.
@@5150GringoGarage i just ordered cm1100 modem. (newer model)
@@5150GringoGarage :). Looking into the NETGEAR Nighthawk AX12 router to but not sure. I currently got asus 3200 router.
@@5150GringoGarage hmm ok
@@5150GringoGarage I will wait on it i guess for now. It wont be here till 7th though
So is 300mbps the fastest you got out of the ac1900 router? I’m running the same router and just bought the cm1000 modem today.
See my post had the same issue also!
What site are you using to run those tests?
How do I check how much mbps my xfinity wifi allows? Because I'm buying the modem u have right now and I wanna know how much speed I will get
@@5150GringoGarage ok
Has you had any problems with this cable modem so far?
Can u try the speed with 802.11ax wifi standard aka WIFI 6.
I have satellite WiFi from Hughsnet I get 3 Mbps so if I get this will it make it any faster or is it too slow ?...
5150GringoGarage oh alright thx👌🏽
I have spectrum put my ping be too damn high you think if I get this it could help lower my ping bc it's killing me in bo4 lol
Will this work as a replacement for my xfinity dual band WiFi modern?
Depends. If you are going for just the modem which this netgear is, then yes. If you are looking for a router and modem combo like what xfinity probably rented you, then no. If you use this netgear modem, you have to buy a router for the WiFi connection.
The upside. It pays for itself in about a year versus the monthly fee rental from xfinity.
so you are telling me that if i disconnect my otpimum online and buy this thing to use it as an internet means it gonna work ?
@@5150GringoGarage yes but my question is if i buy one of these stuff i have optimum online payin like 74 dollers a month i would like to know for one of these to work all i have to do is connect it to the cable of my isp but also my se cond question is do i tell them to disconnect my internet ?
ok@@5150GringoGarage
Do you need a a router for that modem you bought
5150GringoGarage i thought you dont need a router for a modem
Bro I get more than 700 mbps down on wifi u need to upgrade your wireless card on your pc
Although your wifi may say AC speed, real-life seems not to go beyond 300Mb on 5GHz. Mileage may vary depending on the router.
How fast your router is is dependent on what number of AC it is. The second thing is if it has enough range to sustain the speed you want over the size of area you need.
@kenniikalonji Do you know what speed you pay for?
@kenniikalonji Google wifi is AC1200, that's why you're not getting 1G. You need a router that supports at least 1G on both the 2ghz and 5 ghz bands. I believe that will be the AC3200 at least.
@kenniikalonji It's maximum speed is 900 mbps so, no it does not support 1 gbps. Your youtube video may be using something that isn't the google wifi.
Expensive is a subjective. If by "needing" you mean that a maximum of 900 mbps is enough, yes.
This part of your statement is incoherent because you're describing 1 gbps as little yet that's actually more than what your router even supports. In any case, my point is that if you want 1 gbps than you need a router that will support that amount.
@kenniikalonji 900mbps is 100 less than 1gb actually. Sorry you feel that way. Didn't mean to up set you. You said you weren't getting the speed you pay for & I thought I would help you.
Your speeds over wifi aren't guaranteed by the ISP, it's your router that's going to do that. The additional cost would be to obtain the entirety of the speed you pay for & not to please me.
I thought you said "I use google wifi router and get 600-700Mbps on wifi". Do you mean hardwired you get 900mbps? Because if it is, it could be possible to reach 1gbps by upgrading your cable modem to one that has DOCSIS 3.1 like the man in this video.
Hardwiring your house is a great idea for those that can afford it but unfortunately that still doesn't guarantee your speeds through WIFI if your router isn't power enough.
Actually, yes I have bought what I wanted & achieve the exact speeds Comcast tells me I have. I agree with you, the original commenter was ill informed but that's ok. Again, sorry to have upset you so much. I was only trying to help.
Im getting the netgear cm 400 or cm 500 hopefully it works with optimum
get the asus pcie 3100 network adapter. it can do 1.3gb wifi speed on 5g band.
Cute daughter @ 6:40 and she was very respectful unlike other kids.
That’s how my daughter looks any time the wireless is down...lol
Dude, at the end of the day Comcast and Xfinity absolute fucking suck. Worst company ever providing subpar service and hardware. I hate them and look forward to the day they go belly up.
5150GringoGarage,
Oh I hear ya buddy. I now live in Florida so I'm in the same boat. If there was anything that I could have brought with me from up north it would have been my Verizon Fios. That was an IP service. Consistent and nonthrottling.
got no choice sadly either comcast or dsl at verizon at 10mb/s
whos your cable provider?
I have comcast and upgraded to 1GB speed the other day. I'm Replacing my modem after research
ROFLMAO. You’re not supposed to run 2 Speedtest at the same time bro. Wtf. Supposed to stop all internet usage while running 1 test. OMG 😂
@@5150GringoGarage No problem. Thanks for your reply as well 3 years later.
My dude Furious Pete gaming now! Lol
@@5150GringoGarage lol all jokes aside.. how's the modem treating you or have you upgraded?
Nice video, bud. Have you upgraded the router since? I’m running the same ac1900 but with an SB8200 modem, and thinking about upgrading to the 1gb service. Wondering if I’ll need to upgrade the router to fully take advantage? Or overkill?
5150GringoGarage thanks for the quick response! So, just to clarify, you went down in ISP speed? Where are you at now?
5150GringoGarage alright, cool. Still saw an improvement overall on the 250mb plan with the upgraded modem? Or about the same?
They scaming me for 10 years Every time I complain they ask me upgrade your service then upgrade your modem in the end They find out the connection from 10 years ago to it was loose and rusty 🙃 . They are Money Vampire
Great if a 1gb pipe is a necessity for some reason, but the reality is most people don't need gigabit internet. Therfore most don't need to upgrade to a 3.1 modem. It's all marketing to get more of people's hard earned money.
Yea tell that to a family of 5 streaming 4K Netflix, HBO Max and TH-cam at the same time lol!
@@stacksmasher Since when do you need 1gb to stream 4k from 5 sources at the same time? A 100 mbps plan would be plenty in that situation.
@@rkgsd Because its not the download speeds my man, its the upstream and overhead. Se ewhile downloading sustained 60-80mbps is fine you also need 10mbps upload for each connection as well.
Like the hat. Mopar or No car!
Es una NENAA!!
You don't need the 2nd router, that's what is messing you up
The modem he is reviewing does not have a router built in so, in fact, he does need the router if he wants to use wifi or hard wire more than 1 device.
How much was it
And how much do you pay for the 1gb in download speeds
Excellent video
Will work for wow internet
Please don't let anybody talk you into this modem unless you have 1-gig internet speed from your ISP. You can get by fine with a DOCSIS 3.0 modem for $49. A family of three, we all have phones connected to Wi-Fi, Smart TV powering TH-cam TV, and a PlayStation 4. With our 150mb plan from Xfinity I've never had a slow down or hiccup.
don't let those motherfukers at Xfinity try and talk you into more internet than you need. Because, if you call them they will sure as fuck try and get you into the highest speed
@@5150GringoGarage TOTALLY! I just got a new job which requires 30 megabyte upload. I can either switch to AT&t fiber or stay with Xfinity in the only plan that allows 30+ is the $80 a month gigabit plan.
So in order to get the correct Internet I had to pay Xfinity $70 to run a new line and buy this router from Costco for $149
I have a family of 4 and we are able to saturate the entire 1gig line. It really depends on the use case. Even if you have 400 Mbps, this modem is worth the upgrade.
FYI a modem with more channels give better speed reliability during peak times when your neighbors on the same ISP is using lots of bandwidth. If you ever had slower speeds during specific times of the day thats why. So even if you don't need a docsis 3.1 modem, it might help if you live in a large neighborhood
I have att fiber upload is pretty fast
@@5150GringoGarage With AT&T you get symmetrical upload, your upload would also be 1000 megabit.
Nice video keep it up 👍
Nice Intuition shirt🔥🤘

If I this wanted to use my modem for my ps4 via Ethernet could I this use a modem or would I need a router because what heard from research is you can only connect one device to a modem and that device I have in mine is my ps4 so would it work if I this connected the modem by itself to my ps4 via Ethernet or no this let me know
@@5150GringoGarage so if I this used plain Ethernet I would be fine on my ps4

@@5150GringoGarage and would I also need me internet service install this modem for me
@@5150GringoGarage so I would not be able to run the panoramic as a router because it’s a modem /router
If you are running a gig you need a wifi 6 router arris 8200 modem asus router
Also get a cat 7 twisted shielded Ethernet wire and plug from modem to router.
Cat 7 is overkill on a home network. It is useless for typical home equipment. Cat 6 is sufficient
@@melseven5294 yes very true and even cat5e does the job. But if you can get cat7 why not just get it and not worry about cables issues in future?
@@DragonProtector there is no official standard for cat 7 so it's more so a marketing gimmick. cat 6a which is official should be future proof for many many years, at least until 10 gbps is considered slow
You probably should have a tri band router so you can have 2 5GHZ bands & get an external wireless adapter for your HP.
get a nest router like the netgear orbi
If you want better wifi speeds get a better router....that's why the speeds were the same
What router would you recommend?
👍
Upgrade?? speed why are you a science analyst stock hedge fund operator? Homeland sec data trafficer
epic moment when she complained after the interruption...you said it
So basically, you want faster internet, buy more bandwidth. Shocking.
😂 😂 😂 can get more bandwidth too don't hate
I just bought this modem can you connect wifi without a router with this modem? An answer from anyone who knows would be nice lol I'm retarded when it comes to tech lol
No need router
@@mrslapside I can't find it on wifi lol
147th comment
You can’t add new modem without call xfinity bro for your privacy I’m Comcast tech and I know that in fact
Yes you can.
Why does it state that you can set the modem up for the cm1200 and not be able to connect to the internet using the new modem to manually do that? Do you have to set it up manually before using it or after u install it. If so I waited a good half hour with no results
its because you Router
You don't really need that though lol
Lol you like a 11yrold enthusiastic about internet speed
