Thanks for your recommendation. The ISP will require me to return their equipment when the contract ends. I intend to then look for the cheapest provider who will probably send me their equipment to use. I would prefer to use my own modem and router going forward as my ISP will change over time. I have a larger property circa 4000sqft over two floors and standard routers don’t provide full coverage even with five extra discs.

Good Luck.
