We’re dealing with an older router that my family believes is failing, so they’re urging me to upgrade. I’ve been comparing the Orbi mesh network, Google Wi-Fi, and a Netgear Router/Modem. I’m not sure which model we actually have, but I know it supports 10/100/1000 Gigabit speeds and includes both 2.4GHz and 5G networks.

These solutions involve devices that convert your ISP’s network signal into a format routers and computers understand. Therefore, a router-modem package should also include buying a separate modem.

It's a dual-purpose device combining both router and modem functions in one unit.

So if the device is failing, you'll have to consider the cost of a new modem. Begin by figuring out whether your ISP provides DSL, cable, or fiber optic service. Next, determine the frequencies they use for internet delivery. Then look for a modem that fits your speed requirements and works with those factors.

These are the specific radio waves your gadgets employ to link to your network hub, which subsequently communicates with the central device, transforming data into a standard channel on your connection line that the ISP modem recognizes, ultimately forwarding your information across the wider web.

Sure, I can help with that. Please let me know your current modem/router model or DOCISIS standard, and I’ll verify it for you. Also, confirm whether your ISP supports the listed devices.
