I am a complete novice, so bear with me. We have Xfinity GB service and we are thinking of purchasing the CM1150V for the cable modem but we then want to use our already purchased C7000 as the router...

Because it lacks a WAN/Internet Ethernet port, I see no way to use a
C7000 as a normal router. (It should be possible to configure a C7000
as a wireless access point, but that wouldn't give you a router.)

I believe so.
