"AC1750" is a speed, not a model number. Ever helpful, Netgear
product packaging emphasizes speeds like "ACxxxx", but that's not the
model identifier. Look at the product label.

Is that accurate?

A C6300 is a modem+router, not only a modem. It doesn't have an
Ethernet WAN/Internet port, so you can't use it as a router-only.

"a new modem" or "a new router"?

But it doesn't have an "ethernet input". To what would you connect
its Ethernet WAN/Internet port if it had one?
You might want to look at other Netgear routers whose model numbers
begin with "R".
It may be possible to use a C6300 as a wireless access point, not as
a full-function router:

My ISP provides ethernet as input so my simple question is, can I somehow use C6300|AC1750 Cable Modem Router Docsis 3.0 with ethernet inout instead of a coax input. May be a converter?

Still true.

I don't know of one.
