Might configure the NG gateway modem into modem only mode for your wifi router system:

yes i figured i may need to do that, being it will not be connected to cable anymore we will be turning comcast cable off. to help keep the cable bill lowered i had to combine tv and internet. with 10 tv stations that i get on y antennas now.
thanks

And if you get a different ISP other than cable, then you can't use this model modem then. You'll need to use what ever platform the ISP is requiring to be used.

so far frontier offers no cable tv in our area, just internet. i will not be going to another isp for internet on the netgear combo unit it should stay the same as i have it set to static so when i unplug the cable for comcast it should stay the same. i have tested that already and it did not change. i know the eero 6 will have a new isp address. i guess i will find out soon thanks.
