What router works best with RBR20
What router works best with the Orbi RBR20? I have an older Arris SB6141 which is an 8x4 DOCSIS3.0. I am only paying for 100MB with my ISP (Charter/Spectrum) but I am getting about 200MB during speed...
Didn't mean to offend. Was going off of "What router works best". (I am terribly literal.)
From a brief Google search of "Spectrum downstream channels", it appears that that Spectrum's higher speed service uses 32 channels.
Here's a sample discussion that popped up: https://www.dslreports.com/forum/r32464678-HSI-Channel-Bonding-Configuration

The list of "approved" modems for Spectrum is here:

Just to be clear: you want a "modem", not a "router/modem". Personally, I would get a DOCSUS 3.1 modem as a means of "future proofing" for when they offer higher speeds.
That web site mentions that customers who have an ISP modem that is six years old can return it for a new modem. Is this modem yours or theirs?
p.s. I have not seen any comment that one brand of modem works better with Orbi than another. They are "DOCSIS certified", which may some guarantee of inter-operability.
