[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1950625, member: 110816"] There are probably nuances to this across the pond that I'm unaware of, so our brethren from there might chime in on the specifics.. But, in my case, I used to have Cable modem about 15 years ago and then switched to FiOS. My ISP has the FiOS modem which is also a WiFi router, but I don't use it for that. I have my own set of routers and extenders that allows me to get the coverage I need and the type I need. I had a TP-Link Archer router with 3 extenders for a while. About 6 months ago I swapped out to a set of Deco routers instead. All you really need from the ISP provided router is the cable to connect to your own router and you can 1) own your routers, 2) upgrade to whatever new standard comes up, 3) figure out how to get the best coverage in your home.
