Maybe they've solved the cooling issue on higher quality gateways, but I wouldn't chance it at over $200.
1) One bad lighting strike can pass outside grounding frying your unit via cable.I had this happen with a spectrum modem. (Was replaced free).
2) Internal antennas are weak and have low power output per FCC testing. https://fccid.io/2AF5PMG8702 This specific unit only peaks out at 746mW on unii3 channels. 477mW on unii-1. Modern high end units are 1W unii-1+3 with real antennas.
3)* If youre on spectrum service, there's no real point investing into a modem to start with. They have 4 different models in circulation with 2.5G ports. EN2251 and ES2251 are Puma7 based, EU2251 and ET2251 are BCM3390 based. All of them receive updates more frequently than 3rd party options.
