    AC1750 is a speed, not a model.

    in terms of modems it comes down to a few things.

    1. What isp are you using? Did you check with their compatibilty? That's the key.

    2. What speeds are you paying for and do you plan on upgrading? Another key.

      The ISP I’m using is Time Warner Cable. No, I didn’t check with their capability and I’m just looking for a speed that can work for normal use, no need for gaming. 😊👍

        Again, what speed do you plan on having or upgrading to at some point.

        Basically pick the speed you want and then check time warner's compatible modem list for that speed. It'll narrow what ones greatly.
