Our take on the SMC Wireless Gateway DOCSIS 3.0 Modem 8x4 Dual Band 3x3 Wi-Fi 802.11n

The SMC Wireless Gateway is a cable modem and dual-band Wi-Fi router in one box. It uses DOCSIS 3.0 with 8x4 channel bonding and 802.11n Wi-Fi with a 3x3 antenna array, plus four gigabit Ethernet ports and a USB 2.0 port. It suits budget shoppers who want one device for cable internet and home Wi-Fi and don't need the speed of DOCSIS 3.1 or Wi-Fi 5. Against current gateways it is dated: 802.11n tops out well below modern Wi-Fi 5 and 6 routers, and 8x4 bonding caps cable throughput below what 3.1 modems deliver.

Questions and answers

Will this work with my cable provider?
It is a DOCSIS 3.0 cable gateway, so it works with providers that support customer-owned 3.0 modems. Check your provider's approved modem list before buying, since some require DOCSIS 3.1 for higher speed tiers.
How fast is the Wi-Fi?
It is 802.11n dual-band with a 3x3 antenna array. Real-world speeds are far below Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 routers, so it suits basic browsing, streaming and light home use rather than heavy 4K or gaming traffic.
Does it replace my router?
Yes. It is a gateway, combining the cable modem and a dual-band Wi-Fi router with four gigabit LAN ports. You do not need a separate router unless you want newer Wi-Fi standards.
Can I connect wired devices?
Yes, through four 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports. There is also one USB 2.0 Type A port, but it is slow compared with USB 3.0.
What security does it support?
It supports WEP, WPA and WPA2 with AES encryption, plus a firewall, parental controls and WPS. WEP and WPA are outdated, so use WPA2.
Is it good for gaming or large homes?
No. 802.11n Wi-Fi and DOCSIS 3.0 are dated, and internal antennas limit range. Gamers and large homes are better served by a DOCSIS 3.1 modem with a Wi-Fi 5 or Wi-Fi 6 router.
Where is the SMC Wireless Gateway DOCSIS 3.0 Modem 8x4 Dual Band 3x3 Wi-Fi 802.11n cheapest?
