Q: Can the stand be removed?

The stand on the CM1150V can easily be removed by removing one silver screw from the bottom of the unit. For this particular modem you need a Torx-8 screwdriver or equivalent. An earlier review, presumably for a different modem indicated a Torx-9 was required.

Q: Does this modem have a router built in?

NETGEAR Gigabit Cable Modem 32x8 DOCSIS 3.1 Max speed 6 Gbps | For XFINITY by Comcast and Cox. Compatible with Gig-Speed from Xfinity (CM1000-1AZNAS) This model, nope, that's a no router model and the one Ethernet port is indicative of that. Netgear does not make any Cable Modems are dual units if there is only one Ethernet port, that's the point, no router, if there is a router, there's at least two ports. And the liars here, says up to 6 Gbps, with one single 1 Gbps port, that's a defined 1 Gbps port and there's only 1 so no bonding. Anything that connects to THIS cable modem will only ever, ever, ever be able to max 1 gb up or down, and we know you'll never see that speed but Cox Gigablast, yeah it's insanely fast. I just don't get why it 100 % is lying and does not ever, under any condition support a connection beyond 1 gb, obviously they are referring to what the cable (coax) is capable of doing per docsis 3.1 but that's misleading, that doesn't matter, it support whatever the slower port is, in this case, the limiting port is actually the Gigibit Ethernet port so that's the max speed 1 Gbps, please correct.

Q: Cm600-1aznas ($89.99) vs cm600-100nas ($109.99), what's the difference? Both appear to be the same 24x8 modem from Netgear.

1aznas is an amazon sku, 100nas is the retail sku. Otherwise they are the same modem.

Question 1

Does this device increase the Internet Speed? Why i buy it?

Accepted Answer

(6 years later...)
Speed is governed by the through-put of your >slowest< piece of equipment.
ISP? Modem? Router? Network card? The computer itself? Anyway, there are a few factors...

As an analogy:
A march of 300 dreamers per hour from ISP-land will cause a back-up to form at a 100-person per hour checkpoint - let's call this "checkpoint modem". (Speed is rated at the exit of this checkpoint, of course.)
   If a second checkpoint - lets call this one "checkpoint router" - also processes at least 100 people per hour, then that second checkpoint should flow without back-up, no problem. The first checkpoint is your people bottle-neck and where the jam up will be, on the overall journey.
   But to get to 300 people per hour moving all the way down the path without any back-up at all, you'd have to fix both of the check-points to process 300pph, not just the first one. Same applies to data. Your modem is just one check point. If it's the slowest piece of the puzzle, speeding it up will help speed things up, overall - but only to the rate of the next slowest piece. The question becomes can you get it ALL to work faster than the flow of data/dreamers requiring processing2 - without having more (aka paying for more) handling capability than you can use.
