The NETGEAR C3700 is a two-in-one device: a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem with an N600 dual-band WiFi router built in. It bonds 8 downstream and 4 upstream channels for cable downloads up to 340 Mbps and puts 300 Mbps on each band, with two Gigabit Ethernet ports and a USB 2.0 port for sharing a drive. It suits light-to-moderate households that want one box and no rental modem, but its WiFi is older 802.11n and its 340 Mbps ceiling is well below what faster cable tiers and modern DOCSIS 3.1 modems deliver.

Owner feedback is mixed. People like the simple all-in-one setup and dropping the rental fee, but many find the WiFi weak and the modem outdated for faster plans.
The NETGEAR C3700 combines a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem and an N600 dual band WiFi router in one device. It is CableLabs certified to work with U.S. cable Internet providers such as XFINITY from Comcast, Spectrum, Cox and Cablevision. It is not compatible with cable bundled voice services.
The modem uses 8 downstream and 4 upstream bonded channels for cable download speeds of up to 340 Mbps. DOCSIS 3.0 is up to 8x faster than DOCSIS 2.0. WiFi runs on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands at the same time, at up to 300 Mbps each. Running both bands at once reduces interference. Two Gigabit Ethernet ports handle wired connections.
The USB 2.0 port lets you share a USB hard drive over the network with ReadySHARE USB access. DLNA support lets you find and play media on DLNA TVs and game consoles. Push 'N' Connect adds devices to the WiFi network with the push of a button. Setup is browser-based and needs no CD. XFINITY customers can self-activate without a service call.
