I have not tried my C7800 on my ISP with Gb Speeds.
Something NG would know for sure and which combo models support 1G speeds.
1G speeds need DOCSIS 3.1 for Cable ISPs. I know the C7800 is.
The CM700, 1000, 1100 and 1200 support 1G speeds. Those are stand alone modems only. You would need a external router behind those also.
You need HW NAT accelleration or Cut Through features on the combo unit or external router to achieve anything near 900Mbps. The R7800 and XR450/500 routers support this should review this kind of configuration.

No phone connectivity needed. Wifi needs to be dual band 2.4/5GHz and support video streaming and multiple devices connected simultaneously.
