Avoid paying Comcast for their gear. Save money by buying your own equipment. The modem you’re considering seems excellent and should work well until you switch to another internet service. Based on the specs, it supports up to 1400 Mbps. For routers, I’m familiar mainly with Netgear Nighthawk models and an older Belkin unit. Reading reviews is all the guidance I can offer for routers.
Comcast regularly checks and applies firmware updates to customer-owned modems. When a device appears on their supported list, it gets tested and updated. This is the only positive aspect they offer. The CM700 model should manage most tasks, but if you upgrade to Gigabit later, you’ll need a Docsis 3.1 modem. Many regions still lack Gigabit access, and it comes at a higher cost.
Range is set by the standard, not just your modem or router. If you buy your own ISP, they’ll assume responsibility and won’t help troubleshoot. Liability and missing documentation are involved. Make sure you understand what you’re doing before proceeding. If you need more coverage, consider using an extender. The 802.11 standard generally limits range.
