Non technical user! I currently have Virgin media 1000 gb package using their version 4 hub router via cable access. Can i plug this into the net gear product or do i have to connect a cabl...
I'm always a fan of better gear but when you're already using a reputable system, I'd recommend figuring out whats causing the current issues before throwing money at it.
I'd start with the hub-4. It isn't known for being that great. Get it into modem only/passthrough mode and see how that impacts your stability.
Once you get it stable, if you're already needing a mesh system and still want to upgrade, I'd look at picking up a Wireless BE mesh system and not just a router. Wifi 7 added a little distance but not enough to replace a mesh system and if you go from mesh to single router solution, you'll be lacking coverage at the peripheral.
Just researching a fix for my issues and thought upgrading to wifi 7 router in the process may unleash the full potential of the broadband pack I have. Again really appreciate your comments
