Neither ARRIS SURFboard SBG6580 nor Arris SURFboard AC1750 were recommended by experts this month

On 5 Mar 2024 (23 days ago) we went through 60 Modem expert endorsements , however neither ARRIS SURFboard SBG6580 nor Arris SURFboard AC1750 were included in any of those recommendations. Since neither Modem received a single endorsement, as far as expert recommendations go, it's technically a tie. We do, however, recommend taking a look at Netgear Nighthawk CM2000 or other critically acclaimed Modems of this month.
