RBR50 modem hookup?
Dumb question, just switched from Frontier to Spectrum and the installer hooked up the Orbi to the Spectrum WiFi router? Have 1gb down to their modem but only about 300-400 from their modem to their wifi router and then to the Orbi network. Can I just bypass / deep six their wifi router and hook the Orbi directly into their modem?

Yes, it is very likely that the Orbi router can be connected directly to the Spectrum modem and the Spectrum router can be returned to them. (As long as Spectrum installed two separate pieces of equipment - one modem, one WiFi router. Sometimes they install one combination device.)
- Thanks! I thought so but wanted to make sure. I’ll give it a shot
