FURRYe38 asked about the modem/gateway that sits between the router and the Internet.
Unless you have the optical equivalent, an Optical Network Terminator (ONT) or some other exotic device, no modem = no internet.
This can be an important factor. Some modems are also routers. Which can cause problems.
