NETGEAR MK73-100NAR 3-Pack: Router + 2 Satellites

How well do these work with xfinity?

This Is an amazin Deal for $49. I Think I bought The Same Deal at costco a Couple Years Ago for $120 or so

Same question. How do they work with xfinity?

This is a Router, not a Modem (which would be the interface between your ISP and the Router). So all you would need to do is connect it to your Modem with an Ethernet cable, I believe. But you might want to ask Xfinity or your ISP if this Router will configure automatically after connecting to the modem, or if something more needs to be done.

Bought these and they lasted about 2 years. I have 600 mbps speed on fiber and could only get 300 mbps if I was standing beside the main one. They conked out on me last month and I got Orbi. Got 500+ on those and was really impressed. If you don’t care about speed, get these for a couple years I guess.

Should work with any ISP, but how its set up may vary. I have 2 Asus routers set up as a mesh system. I have to use my ISPs router because of specific settings. I turned the wifi off on my ISPs router and connected the Asus routers in AP Mode. So the ISP router handles the “routing” and IP addresses and the Asus routers in AP mode just handle the wifi. I use an ethernet cable to handle the back haul channel so i have 2.4 and 5ghz channels available. These wireless mesh systems need a dedicated wireless band to handle the communication between the nodes/router. So you may see speed drops for longer distances between nodes.

The arrived broken-ish whenever they loose power they no longer broadcast wifi and need to be setup again every single time.
