CM1200 Compatibility with Routers and ISP

Hello everyone! I am trying to get off the rented modem/router we get from RCN and was looking at the CM1200 and was hoping you guys could help make sure I don't buy something I can't use!

Modem: https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-Nighthawk-Cable-Modem-CM1200/dp/B07Q5VM51Y

 

Now I first want to make sure this works with RCN and also that it would be compatible with the non-Netgear AX router I am looking to get: 

Router: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HM6KJN8/?th=1&tag=linus21-20

 

Also, as an extra I use a MOCA - does anyone see any potential issues with this setup for that? 

 

Thank you in advance for your help!

    You'd have to check with RCN to see if its compatible with their service. 

     

    It'd be compatible with the router you listed.
