A good router, good wireless coverage. Improvement in speed and coverage over my previous 4 year old Verizon provided router. Note: If you have Verizon FIOS service get a Verizon branded version of this router for best compatibility. Many online sell you a Frontier branded version of this router even though they show you a Verizon picture. The Frontier branded router will work (I have used them). However each has slightly different interface software and the Frontier will not automatically sync with other Verizon branded equipment like their WiFi extender or with Verizon's remote web management system and probably not get software updates if Verizon pushes any out (my guess on the last update point).

This router was just what I needed...until I started having speed issues. Turns out the router I purchased has Frontier Firmware. That means it will never receive the Verizon firmware updates. Verizon explained that this is common when buying routers from third parties- Verizon sold off it's territory in certain areas to Frontier, and some routers are set up for Frontier.

Have had the old Actiontec 424R provided by Verizon/Frontier for a long time and got tired of not getting the connection speed I’m paying for (75/75). Found out through a little online research that others have experienced this same limitation. Decided to upgrade the router, but A) didn’t want to overpay to buy/rent a new one from Frontier, and B) didn’t want to go with a completely rogue solution and have to mess with config/sync issues or moca adapters. That’s where this Quantum Gateway router comes in. Got it for about half-price on eBay, unplugged network patch cables and coax from the old router, plugged them into this router, and it just worked... no issues whatsoever. Immediately synced up with Frontier’s network, and recognized all of my devices (PCs/phones/TVs/etc). The WIFI password setup is easy, the included manual walks you step-by-step (this manual can also be downloaded from several websites including Frontier’s). Now getting at or above my rated FIOS speed, and the WIFI signal strength is greatly improved. Just don’t forget to re-setup any parental control rules you had on the old router - protect those kiddos! For Verizon/Frontier FIOS customers needing a no-hassle router upgrade, THIS IS THE ONE!Read full review

I have 2 iMacs, iPhones and iPads and had 2 brand new Netgear modems from AT&T that would not work with the Apple products. Kept disconnecting when on wireless and would always say cannot connect to the network. This never happens with the Motorola. Be sure the Motorola modem has the red sticker on the top and the stickers on the bottom with the Access Code and WEP key. If the modem does not have those stickers on it I wouldn't buy it.

The Netopia 3347 modem/router works well but I have just installed it, so I will know more after a week or so. I bought a 3347 at the recommendation of a repairman who came to my house to try to repair my DSL line. He said I might get faster internet speeds from the 3347 than I was getting with my combination Westell modem and Netgear router. My first 4 attempt to install were unsuccessful in getting on-line with AT&T, but I finally took a paper clip and re-set the unit. I got on-line with AT&T instantly, and the AT&T site configured the modem. After I got on-line, I followed directions obtained from various sites to set up wireless service. Right now, the 3347 is working great, and a note on the unit says it should be even faster after I leave it turned on for 10 days.
