"So far, so good with the MG8725. I measure the speeds at various times of day through various devices, and while all seemingly different, they are well above, on average, what the Cox provided cable modem WiFi was bringing." –Andrew

  • Description
  • Tech Specs
  • ultra-fast DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem

    Supports fast internet plans with DOCSIS 3.1, backward compatible with 32x8 DOCSIS 3.0. Features one 2.5 Gig ethernet port and three 1 Gig Ethernet ports for wired connections.

    warp speed AX6000 4x4 router

    Power Boost™, Range Boost, and AnyBeam WiFi beamforming enable whole-home coverage. Supports multi-gigabit speeds, depending on your service plan.

    bye bye, latency

    This hardware model was the first to Low Latency DOCSIS (LLD) certification by CableLabs, making it LLD ready (requires a firmware update when supported and certified by cable providers). Lower latency reduces lag for the ultimate gaming, streaming, and conferencing experience.

    superior, but pays for itself

    Savings up to $168 per year on modem rental fees. Comes with a 2-year warranty and free support from our US-based technicians.

    safety. privacy. control.

    Setup in minutes using the motosync app. Access speed tests, guest network, signal strength, and malware blocking. Create family profiles to filter content, set schedules, monitor usage, and more.

Smoothing Saiing After Rough Start On Install

The biggest problem I had was setting it up. I downloaded the Xfinity app like I was instructed to, but it would not connect with the Xfinity install site. After many frustrating hours, I noticed the personal hot spot wasn't enabled on my iPhone. Once I enabled it, I had no further problems. Anyway, since I installed the Motorola mg8725, I've experienced no buffering problems and the WiFi feed is more stable than ever.
