CBK40 Orbi with ATT Fiber

I currently am switching from Comcast cable to AT&T fiber with an existing CBK40 system.  What is the best configuration for the AT&T box with the CBK40?

    Well, this has been my intuition all the way so thanks for confirming the facts.  I will use the AT&T system with an expander that they provide to see if this is enough to cover my house.  

    I can't return the CBK40 so I'll try to find a way to provide value to someone.

     

    Thanks for the advice on clearing the ISP as well.  I'll get this off Comcast as soon as the AT&T is up.

I have AT&T Fiber 1000 service, with the Pace 5268AC router. You can configure the AT&T/Pace router to be the gateway (only), and let the Orbi be the router + Wi-Fi. Works great for me.

    You can't do that with the CBK40.
