Amazon offers the ARRIS Surfboard S33 DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem for $ 169.99 shipping. From $ 200, this is the third best price we've ever watched and matches our last mention. Ready to replace the rented modem, ARRIS S33 allows you to save up to $ 120 per year in fees. You'll find a 2.5 Gb / s Ethernet port on the back, along with 1 Gb / s for a secondary network. ARRIS uses the latest technology that allows it to use up to 32 DOCSIS 3.0 channels downstream and eight upstream, as well as two OFDM DOCSIS 3.1 channels downstream and upstream, for a total network speeds of up to 1, 2 Gb / s. We recommend that you check with your ISP to confirm compatibility before purchasing, although ARRIS says it should work with Cox, Spectrum or Xfinity. Go below for more details.
If the modem provided by the ISP you are replacing has a built-in Wi-Fi router, then we also recommend that you purchase a refurbished eero. Entering 69 USD on Amazon, this HomeKit-compatible Wi-Fi 5 router is a great way to completely replace your existing all-in-one solution without paying a single rental fee. You can easily add more eero routers as time goes on for wider coverage and even upgrade to Wi-Fi 6 further once the time is up.
Remember that Nest Wifi is currently on sale at $ 209 for a package of 2. Decreasing by $ 80 from the normal operating rate, this is part of Google's Black Friday sale early, which began earlier this morning. There's a lot more to see here, so be sure to take a look at our previous cover to find out more.
