Will Zoom modem run Netflix on a Smart TV? I bought one yesterday and hooked it up but Netflix is not coming up.

First try connection the Yellow ethernet cable from the rca modem to your computer's network connection. If you get a connection this way, then your modem will work with a ethernet cable. If not, then call Comcast for help. The modem ethernet out to computer port must be connected to the wan line of the router. Then you can connect an ethernet cable from your computer network connection to one of the 4 ports of the router. For wireless connections you must set up the router and wireless adaptor with the same settings to connect. Follow the routers directions.
Good Luck

Yes, but you may be having a problem with your internet provider, not your modem.
1) Yes, you can do a soft reset of your cable modem, just pull the power plug, and then plug in. Suggesting you leave the power cord out for 30 seconds. This will do a soft reset of your cable modem, and will not hurt any settings. No worries.
2) You can do a "hard reset" but this is a bit dangerous. If you have any "custom" settings in your router, passwords, or configuration, it will be lost. If you do need (want) to do this, you will first want to go into the cable modem, and "save" your current configuration. At least make "note" of what the configuration is on a piece of paper, for each tab. Also, if you do this, your cable modem will go to its default settings and password. So, suggesting taht you DO NOT do a hard reset without prep. To do a hard reset, on the back of the cable modem is a red button, push and hold for 30 seconds. (Again suggesting, you do not do this without prep.)
That will let you do a reset....
However, I'm thinking that your buffering may be the result of an issue on your computer or your ISP. Tell us more about your configuration. dw

Sounds like a problem with your cable connection. Check your coaxial cable, and the splitter from where the cable enters your home. The tech will use a signal meter to measure the quality of your cable, and then replace the wiring if necessary.

If you're connecting the device you're watching netflix with wirelessly, check the strength of the signal your device is getting from the router, netflix needs a strong connection and the download speed you'll need for it is 1.5mbps or greater. If both your signal and download speed are fine try unplugging your Netgear and your Zoom from the power for about 5 min. to refresh your connection
