help ARRIS SURFboard S34 FAQ
What internet standard does the ARRIS SURFboard S34 use?
The S34 uses DOCSIS 3.1, the cable-modem standard intended for gigabit and multi-gig internet service. It is a modem, not a Wi-Fi router, so a separate router is needed for wireless networking.
What is the maximum download speed advertised for the ARRIS S34?
ARRIS introduced the S34 as a modem capable of up to 2.5 Gbps download speed. The available upload speed depends heavily on whether the provider has enabled compatible low- or mid-split service.
Why would an Xfinity customer choose the S34?
The S34 was introduced to support newer cable tiers, including next-generation upload services in compatible Xfinity markets. It also provides a 2.5Gbps Ethernet connection for a multi-gig router.
Does the S34 include Wi-Fi or telephone service?
The S34 is a data-only cable modem and does not provide built-in Wi-Fi. Buyers who need wireless coverage must connect it to a separate router or mesh system and should verify their ISP's approved-device list.
