what router for nighthawk cm1200 modem
what router should I use with this modem, I also am curious if there are any extra settings to help with latency. Also would getting my own nighthawk router help with ping?

Thats a very loaded statement. and it comes down to a lot of details.
how big is your home?
what is it made of?
How many devices do you want to support?
are you looking at single router solutions (if possible) or a mesh setup?
And finally, budget? sad but important.
if you're looking at single router solutions, the R7800 is pretty solid.
If you're looking at mesh solutions, the triband orbi linup is pretty solid as well.
