To clarify, I replaced Spectrum modem with the Netgear cable modem. The Orbi router is connected to the Netgear modem. The Spectrum modem was slow plus I wanted to get away from monthly fees. My house is older and made of cement brick. I need the Orbi router and satellies to extend the coverage

Need to bridge or set modem only mode on the NG cable modem if this is a modem with built in router and wifi.
What C series model is the NG modem?
