Upgrade RBRK50

I have noticed that NETGEAR has come out with a WIFI-6 router and Cable Modem combined (CBK752). I am extremely interested, but wanting to know if they have some sort of buy-back / upgrade program to upgrade the RBR50 and RBS50 (i.e.(RBK50)) that I already have.

 

I love my ORBI system, but would really like to get rid of my CABLE MODEM and get a faster/better WiFi at the same time.

 

Thank You

    No NG doesn't offer a upgrade or buy back kind of option. No router mfr does. 

     

    IF your current Orbi system is working for you and you enjoy it, then keep it and buy your own modem. NGs CM 1000, 1100, 1200, 2000 or 2050v are good modem only options. Just check with your ISP first before you buy your own modem to see if it's supported on there network

     

    Good Luck.
