Motorola MT7711
Score: 73/100
Hitron CODA56
Score: 78/100Rankings
The Hitron CODA56 is a DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem that delivers up to 2.5 Gbps downstream speeds and a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port, making it ideal for multi-gigabit cable plans. Its lack of integrated Wi-Fi and cable-only compatibility mean an extra router is required. Best suited for power users who already have a separate wireless solution and need the highest possible wired throughput.
The Motorola MT7711 is an all-in-one DOCSIS 3.0 modem, AC1900 Wi-Fi router, and two-port Xfinity Voice solution. Its 600 Mbps speed ceiling and Xfinity-only certification restrict its use for higher-speed or non-Xfinity services. Best suited for Comcast customers needing integrated voice and Wi-Fi.

Professional reviewers commend the MT7711 for its straightforward, sub-15-minute installation and the value of an all-in-one modem-router-phone solution tailored to Xfinity customers.
Everyday users praise the quick plug-and-play setup, reliable Wi-Fi coverage for multiple devices, clear VoIP calls, and the savings from consolidating three devices into one. Common complaints revolve around the 600-Mbps speed ceiling, occasional activation reboots, limited 2.4 GHz range in larger homes, and the fact that the unit only works with Comcast Xfinity services.
Everyday users appreciate the modem's ability to deliver the full speed of their multi-gigabit cable plans, especially for gaming and high-resolution streaming, but they are disappointed by the need to buy a separate Wi-Fi router and the restriction to cable-only service providers.
