Netgear GS608v4 Switch Set Up w/ CM1100 Modem + Orbi RBK852 Router
Thanks to a recent community support string - I just purchased the following... My Xfinity internet set up: 1gbs download plan / unclear upload speed (tests at 50mbs up) My Cable Modem: Netgear CM1...
Good Luck.
Awesome - thanks for the explanation and the links. I'll do some reading up and follow this set up plan. Much appreciated.
And yeah- I agree - will tackle this in the future (ie. cat6 + switch panel). will only add/increase my internet needs in the future vs. decrease. so this will be a good long term project goal.
again - thanks for the help.
Good Luck.
Thanks for all the help here. My home network is all set up and working great. Used the following per the recommendations...
Modem: CM1100 (set up ethernet port aggregation for more bandwidth and redudancy)
Router: Orbi RBK852 (set up with WAN aggregration same reason as above) + Satellite

Connection: made sure to set up each individually before setting up the dual connection between Modem and Router (to avoid the loop). Had issues with setting up the CM1100. Could not connect to routerlogin.net / routerlogin.com /192.168.100.1 . Had to use an alternative computer and then it worked.
Switch: GS608v4 (connected into the Router)
Connection: have all my house CAT5 cables plugged into the Switch to feed the rest of the house ethernet ports.
Everything is working. Thanks for all the recommendations on gear, steps, links and education. Super helpful.
Good to hear. Glad its working well.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
