What Is The Best Internet Cable Modem/Wifi Combo? fukk Paying Comcast $10 A Month To Lease Theirs

[Conscious Pilot]

Motorola SB6141 with a decent netgear or Asus AC Router.Most wireless gateways(modem/router) combos suck for wifi.

Don't get combo joints unless it's the expensive netgear or asus setups

ASUS Routers haven't done me wrong... never seen somebody recommend Belkin ever

Echoing everything else said in here, separate is always better just in case something happens. You'll only have to replace one device instead of two.

Since you're buying now, go ahead and cop something that's as forward compatible as possible. Get a dual band router with wireless AC and you should be good. As far as the modem, grab something that's DOCSIS 3.0 compatible. The former gets you better internal (local) network speeds and the latter allows you to get higher tier (faster) Internet speeds if you're willing to pay for it from your provider.


I have a Zoom 5348J modem and Asus AC87U router that's working great.

I dont have to use comcast modems?

Wonder if that means they can just turn my signal on without having to send some worker over.

If the coaxial cable is running to your house you don't need a tech to come out

If they're not tech heads, you can even set your router up to not broadcast your SSID (network name) and no one will ever know
