Netgear C7000-100NAS Nighthawk AC1900 DOCSIS 3.0 WiFi Cable Modem Router
Overview?
The Netgear C7000-100NAS is a high-performance integrated networking solution designed for small-to-medium business (SMB) environments, home offices, and remote branch locations utilizing cable internet infrastructure. By consolidating a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem and an AC1900 dual-band WiFi router into a single chassis, this unit reduces physical hardware footprint and simplifies network management. It features 24×8 channel bonding, capable of supporting theoretical downstream speeds up to 960 Mbps, making it a reliable choice for high-bandwidth applications such as VoIP, HD video conferencing, and large-scale cloud data synchronization.
Engineered for stability at the network edge, the C7000-100NAS is powered by a 1.6GHz processor to maintain consistent throughput even under heavy concurrent traffic loads. It is certified for major North American cable service providers, including Xfinity, Spectrum, and Cox, allowing organizations to eliminate monthly equipment rental costs while maintaining ownership of their hardware lifecycle. Security is handled via WPA/WPA2 encryption protocols and a double firewall (SPI and NAT) to protect internal assets from external threats. This device is ideal for deployments where a streamlined, all-in-one gateway is required without sacrificing the performance of discrete components.

- Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the C7000-100NAS compatible with fiber or DSL providers? No, this unit is specifically designed for cable internet service providers (ISPs) using coaxial infrastructure. It will not function with fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) or DSL services.
- Does this device support the latest DOCSIS 3.1 standard? The C7000-100NAS utilizes DOCSIS 3.0. While it supports high-speed tiers up to 400-600 Mbps reliably, environments requiring Gigabit-plus speeds should look for DOCSIS 3.1 hardware.
- Can the WiFi be disabled to use this strictly as a modem? Yes, the device supports “Bridge Mode,” which disables the internal routing and WiFi functions, allowing it to act as a standalone modem for use with an external enterprise firewall or router.
