Quick & Easy Install, "Very Fast" Speeds
The original cheapy modem installed by Optimum (Arris Touchstone TM1602A) suddenly stopped working; it would not power on at all.I ordered this item from Amazon as a replacement.I am satisfied with my purchase. A speed test shows my internet is "very fast." The signal is "strong."Installation and activation were quick and easy.I simply plugged the modem in exactly the same way the other had been.I then called Optimum to notify them of the change. In a call lasting 15 minutes in its entirety, Optimum activated the device and had me visit two websites to verify success of the activation. Hopefully, my next Optimum bill will be lower as they assured now that I no longer rent this device from them.
