What Router to choose
I am in UK and connected to Virgin Media so i have to have their Hub but if i put it in Modem mode i need a router to plug into it, now i also have an Orbi RBK50 set - So what is the best non Wifi router to plug both into, will also need Gb ports on router for Gb switch GS308P. TIA.

put SuperHub in Modem mode and just Connect RB50 to it. RBK50 is a Mesh Router.
to expand, just put the swtich behind RBR50 (Base Router).
Ok - So let me let get this crystal.
put VM box in to modem mode.
connect Orbi to it via the orbi WAN port.
connect Orbi to switch via any port to any port on switch.
connect Orbi satellite to switch via any port on Orbi and switch
Use remaining ports on switch for other kit
if i get a third Orbi connect it to switch via any port
this will give me full protection from Internet and be the best Solution?
Thanks for helping.
Suitcase.
