Motorola Surfboard SBG6782-AC 3.0 Cable Modem and Wi-Fi Router-SBG6782-AC

Review: I bought this modem router for our twins' condo at college. I wanted it to be compatible with their ultra current laptops required by their school of engineering, and I liked the idea of a combined cable modem and router from a convenience standpoint. Initially, during setup, I experienced problems in the setup, since I did not "reset" the unit first to factory specs. Since it was already used previously (I bought this as a used unit on desertcart.com at an excellent price), the former owner had set a unique log-in and password, and did not inform me what they were. But once I reset the box to factory specs, then the initial setup proceeded well and smoothly. After setup, one of my son's laptop was experiencing random disconnects from the internet which was very frustrating. The connection would come and go, and when it went, you would see a yellow exclamation mark on the internet icon in the task bar of the laptop screen in the lower right hand side. But then the laptop would just automatically reconnect to the internet again, and then the random disconnect process would begin again. The other son's laptop would lose connection to the wireless HP Officejet printer. In his case, we would have to "reload" the massive drivers again in his laptop over and over to get the connection reestablished, and then randomly, the problem would appear again. But his laptop (which is identical in model, hardware and specifications to the other son's) would never lose connection with the internet. After much diagnosis and stepwise problem solving, we realized that the sons were living in a high density student environment and that there were many separate internet networks active in the same building and nearby, with many of them operating on the same WiFi channels. In our location, these tended to be channels 11 and 6. Our own modem router defaulted to channel 11. This Arris modem router has a feature once you enter the program inside the modem router to fine-tune it, that allows you to conduct a channel scan of your environment, and allows you then to select a unique default channel other than 11, 6, or 1. We chose channel 9 since no one else was using that channel. Once we did that, then the separate problems each of the two laptops were experiencing went away, and now the laptops have been continuously connected to both the internet and to the printer as well without dropouts. So, the takeaway we learned was to get to know our living environment well first, and then to fine-tune the WiFi operating channel that would avoid competing channel traffic from surrounding networks in our location. Once we did that, our dropped internet connection and dropped printer WiFi connection problems went away. Setup with Comcast internet cable was easy and straightforward, and we were able to activate that modem router easily using the Comcast Xfinity set up program. It was straightforward and automatic, and we are now pleased overall with the Arris SBG6782-AC modem router!
Review: I bought this router primarily based on the product and customer reviews. I wanted to replace my rented cable modem from Time Warner and to set up a MoCA network for my Tivo Roamio and Tivo mini. This is an excellent modem/router once once I got the connection problems solved. I am writing this review to help anyone avoid the pitfalls that I fell into. The model SBG6782-AC has a MoCA network adapter built in, which alone can save you a $75 that you would have to buy with a cable modem that isn't MoCA cable. You will need one Actiontec Ethernet Coax adapter if you have a Roamio (the newer Tivo models have this built in already) and a 2MHZ or faster 2way splitter, and a short coax cable. Setting up the software was a bit of a problem for me. I got the most help from Time Warner - Arris is useless, they will not give you any help (worse yet give you missinformation) in setting up MoCA unless you pay them $30. Well I am cheap and struggled with the installation, getting a lot of help from Tivo and Time Warner helped me too. Here is the information I would pass on to anyone interested in learning from my experience. First find your end point on your cable wires, mine was actually in the outside box, but that is unusual, I am told, normally you will find a splitter in your basement. Time Warner came out free to open the box and install the POE for me, and actually gave me the POE filter for free. The POE goes on the between the splitter and the single wire in. Go to the http://192.168.0.1, use the quick launch. Now this is really fast and easy for getting connected to the internet but it doesn't help at all, I mean zero, with MoCA. For a cable/modem that is MoCA enable, they sure do make it hard for us non-technical people. After you have finished the quick launch, go to the Basic Tab: MoCA Configuration and Status. Check off MoCA enable and set the operational frequency to "SCAN". On the same page select ALL the D-Band Channels. I unchecked the privacy box only because I didn't want to put the generated password into every device until I got my network up and running. Next under the Basic tab again, go to DHCP. Check Enable DHCP Server. The client list (which list every wireless device you have in your home. Now if you already connected your MoCA adapter to your Tivo (skip this on the newer Tivo's). I have a Time Warner Cable network adapter with the Tivo card that I rent from Time Warner. Here is another pitfall to watch out for. Both the MoCA adapter and the Time Warner network adapter need a direct line from the wall. So you need to install a 2MHZ 2way splitter to get that direct connect to both devices, connecting to the Cable-In on both. Cable Out from the MoCA adapter to the Cable in on the Tivo. The cable out on the Time Warner Network adapter is not used. Call Tivo support for great free help in getting the connection just right. The Tivo part of the installation went smoothly, my whole frustration was with Arris, and once I figured out my connection problem everything worked like magic, and my Tivo mini installed with no problems after the Roamio was connected. The modem is fast, secure, makes the MoCA connections easy once you get the software setup for MoCa configure correctly on the SBG6782AC as I described above. The SBG6782AC really is a superb piece of equipment and I am glad I bought it. Arris is formally Motorola, the best modems on the market. Oh I get to return two pieces of equipment that I rent to Time Warner - the cable modem and the DTA device that was replaced by the Tivo Mini saving me $11 total per month. All together a great upgrade that will pay for itself 2 years.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why would  I spend the money on this newer model Motorola Surfboard Gateway over the SBG6580 DOCSIS 3.0 model? Reading the specs, it seems similar.**
A: Comcast uses ARRIS modems. the SBG6782 is 100% better then the one you get from Comcast. Now they say new customers get this model.

**Q: Does this work with xfinity triple play package? Comcast says I can't buy one if I have the package.**
A: No it will not work with Comcast Triple play with phone, for that I would recommend ARRIS DOCSIS 3.0 Residential Gateway with 802.11n/ 4 GigaPort Router/ 2-Voice Lines for Comcast (TG862G-CT). But one thing is that it is only a n wireless. Now you could get Arris Tm722g Cable Modem Docsis 3.0 and add a wireless AC router. I did try Arris SBG6782-ac, but I had issue with moca connection and returned it. Now I have an ARRIS SURFboard SB6183 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem with a Cisco wireless ac router and hooked up my TIVO mini via Ethernet. Works great and I would recommend TIVO over Comcast X1 DVR. I love the option to be able to skip commercials on most recorded shows. Also love the 4 tuner and access to apps like Netflix, Amazon video, Hulu, YouTube, Comcast Ondemand. Also with TIVO I can created a season pass including both live TV recording and streaming via apps.

**Q: Does this 6782 have a stronger wifi signal than the 6580?**
A: I replaced my Arris / Motorola 6580 with the 6782 for two reasons:  The WiFi range sucked on the 6580 and I didn't want to spend the $8/month rental fee anymore, among a number of Xfinity charges I'm trying to pare back.  As for Wifi signal, the 6782 is a vast improvement over the 6580, where I couldn't get anything to connect to it that was more than a few feet away, and if it was downstairs, forget it!  I now own the 6782 and have even added a Netgear EX6200 WiFi Range extender.  I now have complete, strong coverage, encrypted, all over the house (three story townhome).

**Q: Does this device serve as a MoCA adapter and/or MoCA router?  I assume I purchase additional MoCA adapters for other areas of the home...**
A: The SBG6782-AC is a MoCA enabled Router and would require that you use other MoCA Adapters on your network to communicate with the SBG6782-AC and create a MoCA Network. When you get adapters, be sure to enable MoCA on the SBG6782-AC (Basic --> MoCA) after you add the other MoCA Adapters on you in-house Cable Network. Also note, that once you enable MoCA on the SBG6782-AC "Privacy" will be enabled by default and you want to turn that off as your adapters likely do not have that enabled. ARRIS also has good information on configuring both your SBG6782-AC and SURFboard MoCA Adapters via <http://arrisi.force.com/consumers/pkb_home> and just select the product of choice and the topic in general FAQs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by E***N on 16 October 2016*

Dropped internet connection......that's what initially was happening when I got this gateway fired up. Having read the reviews both good and bad I weighed my options. For the money the Arris SBG-6782AC seemed like the best alternative to paying the $10 monthly rental fee from Comcast. While it's not ideal to have the modem and router contained in one unit I took a chance because DSLreports said if you must purchase a wireless gateway that this is the product you should get. Here are some things that I did to get everything up and running the way it should. 1. The installation and setup process of the SBG-6782AC went off without a hitch. If you follow the instructions in the quick start guide setting it up is a breeze. With Comcast you can simply plug your computer into one of the ethernet ports to setup and activate the unit. Opening a browser window will take you to the Comcast equipment setup/registration page. From there it's just a matter of following the on-screen instructions. Most importantly Comcast will update the gateway's firmware.....This is very important because you cannot perform this action yourself on this unit. As of 10-16-2016 the most recent firmware version appears to be D30GW-EAGLE-1.5.0.0-GA-07-NOSH. Knowing this is important because there are very few resources available online to tell you if your gateway firmware is up to date.....The manufacturer's web site does not give you this information...(it might but I sure couldn't find it after digging around for a while) An out of date firmware version will cause headaches throughout your network. 2. Not only does the software in the gateway need to be up to date but all your wireless wifi adapters must have their current drives installed too. My laptop has an Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 100 wifi adapter that, according to the hardware manufacturer, will not be supported for much longer. I actually found out by mistake that my adapter driver was not up to date. OUT OF DATE WIFI ADAPTER DRIVER SOFTWARE IS WHY MY INTERNET CONNECTION WAS DROPPING OUT. Updating the driver through Windows did not work. Windows was telling me that my computer already had the most current version of the driver software....The date on the most current driver, according to Windows, was from 2011. *******Here is what I did to fix that issue****** (NOTE: Your computer should either be hooked up to the gateway via an ethernet cable or connected with some type of USB wifi adapter so you can still have access to the internet while the built it wifi adapter is being updated) Go to your control panel and bring up your device manager. Select "network adapters" (write down the name and model # of the adapter for future reference) and right click on your wireless wifi adapter then select "uninstall"....Once the wifi adapter is uninstalled, right click on any category in the device manager and select "scan for hardware changes". After scanning for hardware changes your wireless wifi adapter will show up as an unknown device in the device manager tree. Now you need to get online, enter the name of your wifi adapter and do a search for its driver software. Once you've found the correct version of the adapter's software for your operating system (Mine is Windows 7) go ahead and download it.....then install it. This will either automatically update the wifi adapter's software or make it available to you to update the driver yourself. If you need to do it yourself just right click on your adapter's name in the device manager tree and select "update driver software"....It *should* find the new software and install it without issue. AS IT TURNS OUT THE NEW VERSION OF THE WIFI ADAPTER'S SOFTWARE WAS 4 YEARS NEWER THAN WHAT WINDOWS WAS TELLING ME WAS ALREADY UP TO DATE. If you are having problems with dropping internet connections give this process a shot......I accidentally found out that this is what the problem was. Maybe I can save you some time by pointing you in the right direction. 4 stars for the equipment which works very well even all the way out to my man cave (shed) which is 100 feet away from the house out in the backyard....Minus one star due to the fiddling around that I had to do to get everything working properly. I consider myself very tech savvy but if you are having dropped connection issues it can be time consuming trying to get all the little bugs worked out. Hopefully my review can save you a lot of the time that I put in getting things working smoothly. UPDATED SOFTWARE IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE OPERATION OF THE SBG-6782-AC. Update 11-3-16: My connection speeds were pretty poor with the wireless N card in my laptop. I swapped out the card with a dual band model and my speeds increased significantly. The router really moves along in the 5 Ghz range. The gateway has worked flawlessly for a few weeks now.....It's never needed restarting and has never dropped the internet connection. If you keep your drivers up to date I suspect this product will function as advertised. I am very happy with my purchase.
