The ARRIS SB8200 is a DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem that supports multi-gigabit speeds and is certified for major U.S. cable providers. It has two Gigabit Ethernet ports for link aggregation, which can deliver speeds above 1 Gbps if your provider supports it. Unlike gateway modems, it does not include Wi-Fi or voice, so you need your own router. Owners and reviewers praise its reliability and the savings from avoiding rental fees, but some note it runs warm and may not hit top speeds on all networks.
