The Arris Surfboard S34 is a DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem with a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port. It supports cable internet plans up to 2.5 Gbps and the next-generation upload speed tiers offered by cable internet providers.
It is a modem only, so home Wi-Fi needs a separate Wi-Fi router or mesh system connected to the Ethernet port. The 2.5 Gigabit port suits high-speed routers. A 1 Gigabit port connects an additional wired device or a backup handoff, depending on the service provider's configuration.
Setup is to connect the cable, power on, and activate with your cable provider. Simple LED indicators show power, upstream/downstream, and online status. Owning the modem can avoid monthly equipment rental charges.
