ARRIS Surfboard SVG2482AC Review

I recently had the chance to try out the ARRIS Surfboard SVG2482AC, a three in one device that combines an 8x4 DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem, AC1750 dual band Wi Fi router, and Xfinity telephony. This product is approved for use with Comcast Affinity internet voice service with RDK B technology. It also comes with four Gigabit Ethernet ports for wired devices and 802.11ac Wi Fi speeds up to 1750 Mbps.

The setup was a breeze: all I needed was an internet connection and I was ready to go. The router has two telephone ports which support Xfinity voice, though a battery backup sold separately is required for placing and receiving voice calls during power outages. It s also worth noting that this model does not support Xfinity home security or home control services only the Xfinity home router from Comcast can provide those services.

In terms of performance, I found that the ARRIS Surfboard SVG2482AC delivers on its promise of fast internet speeds. The 24 download and 8 upload channels are ideal for plans up to 600 Mbps, so it s great for streaming movies and playing online games. With dual band concurrent Wi Fi, it also provides reliable performance even at longer distances from the router itself.

Overall, I think the ARRIS Surfboard SVG2482AC is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable modem/router combo that supports high speed internet connections. It s easy to set up, provides great performance at an affordable price point, and offers advanced features such as dual band Wi Fi support and Xfinity voice support. It s perfect for households who want to stream movies or play online games without having to worry about their connection dropping out in the middle of their sessions. Highly recommended!
