Router for Twitch!
Router for Twitch!
First, I’d check out their CNET article about Comcast’s 2020 plans for Wi-Fi 6 Xfinity XFi routers. A major upgrade is expected, offering better stability and speeds to meet your needs. Reaching out to their Tech Support with a clear reason—like being a Twitch streamer who needs more reliable performance—could help push for the necessary changes.
The box Comcast provided functions as an Internet Gateway, meaning you'll need to switch it into bridge mode while continuing to pay the rental or purchase a separate modem. For routers, I recommend the Synology RT2600AC. Although it's quite pricey, it supports Gigabit internet, which is rare among devices.
