Very convenient to replace the modem default operator (personally, my box SFR suffers untimely internet outages, thanks to this Netgear modem, they disappear)
Attention to computer novices, the 150 Mbps are theoretical. The modem just slightly increase your speed but unfortunately can not pass him.
This modem allows a better wifi reception upstairs or through thick walls.
In short, very useful for people with an old box and / or defective and wish to better disseminate the wifi in their home.
