Orbi Modem Connection

I'm looking at purchasing an Orbi system for my home to replace my current system which is becoming problematic. My question is, what is the most stable and reliable dsl modem which works best with the orbi system? Thanks for any pointers you can provide.

  • A DSL modem with out a built in router is recommended. 

    You mghit check out Netgears DM series modems. You should first check with your ISP to see what they officially support on there nework. 

     

    Good Luck.

      Many thanks, any standard units work with the ISP. Have you used CBK40 unit as a modem? I can't seem to source one here.

        The CBK40 is a cable modem system, and not DSL. Will not work on DSL ISP systems. 

        The CBK40 works well on a cable modem ISP system.
