Best modem or router I can use? Besides the one they provide.

Discussion

Just looking for something that would be better than the one they provide. I’ll be living in a small apartment.

What speeds are you getting for Xfinity? That would help determine what kind of equipment you need.

Using a CM 3000 Netgear router with the Asus Zen Wi-Fi BT10 2-units. I always buy my own equipment.

Don’t have the service yet, but I’m going to purchase the 1000mbps package.

If you're going to purchase a modem, get one on the next generation list. When your area becomes mid-split enabled you will have a device capable of the speed offered.

I have the Synology RT6600ax router and it has been great. Coupled with the Arris Surfboard SB8200. I am also on Xfinity 1Gbps.

Arris S33 or S34 work great

Hitron Coda56 + ubiquiti is what my firm deploys to clients

Comcast will routinely do maintenance "upgrades" and will render your modem useless. This has happened to me twice already.
