hey guys don't go here and this is a regular cable modem you know this diff I connect to a cable TV lie in and then Prinze the fast internet home after that you can use a Wi-Fi router like this one right here and connect the two via the modems LAN port and then the router will share the internet connection to the rest of the devices in your home either via Wi-Fi or more network cable now if you put these devices together you will have a combo device like the one I have today the new support extreme combo device from Motorola now so far I will never recommended any combo devices at all for a few reasons number one they are kind of high risk high risk because if either part fails the modem or the rotor part you have to replace the entire thing that is costly and time consuming now the second reason is in combo devices the router part tend to be weak and slow and when you are tired of it you cannot just get rid of it you stuck with it and speaking of being stuck with it well I believe getting a combo device is somewhat like dating a lady with a very cute puppy you risk living to the puppy itself so when you see this remember these danger and it's a lot of work now the new sub board here is different however because it's come with high-end hardware component both of the modem and the router parts and that means is very future-proof the modem part actually support the latest toxic 3.0 standard to offer up to 343 megabyte per second internet speed now that's faster than basically all existing cable services and that could be that way for a long time the router part support the latest 802 point it'll burn a C or a C for short Wi-Fi standard to offer the speed of up to 1.3 biga P per second when used with an AC enabled client it's also a true dual band Wi-Fi router meaning is support or existing Wi-Fi clients we got Lee's a bare standard on the back the sub board as for Gigabit LAN ports but no one port instead it comes with one coax port right here the connector similar to the one foul in the modem now this means this device here only works with internet cable services and not any other services such as DSL or a set like disk to make up for that it has one more thing built in these coax connector right here also support a MOCA now MOCA is very similar to powerline but instead of using the power line it used the cable TV lie in to extend your home network to different rooms that's very convenient because you have to use the actual network cable to extend your Y network on the inside the device has a very robust and easy to you web interface and it has a lot more to offer us than any other combo devices I've seen now in my testing the support here offer very good performance both as a router and a modem as a router offer fast speed very stable signal and also very good range now testing the modem part was kind of tricky because the internet speed depends on how much you pay I bought a home I try at home and it offers exactly the same speed as my existing modem and guess what I have very fast modem that's set at the current price of some $200 the support he actually very good dealing for cable internet user especially when you want to upgrade your network or you just move to a new service because it's cheaper than buying a a CRO separately and I modem separately and the support for the MOCA like this adapter right here is a bonus for more on these check out my phone with us at calm if you curious about the lady and the dark well like many combo deals sometime you manage to love them both I know I do and I said that without even knocking on wood and that's because I'm don't know and this has been the first look at the surfboard extreme cable modem and Wi-Fi AC router with mocha for Motorola and next time please make name shorter you
