I have an Orbi RBK50 AC3000 Set up at home with a single satellite. I am not happy with my current modem and I want to upgrade and I am looking for modem suggestions. I am happy to pay for quality as long as it is compatible with my Orbi.
I would look for a DOCSIS 3.1 modem (future proofing) that is on the internet service provider list of approved modems. If the company does not say "it works", then they will not respond to any problems. Every ISP I know of has a web site listing the approved modems.
1) What ISP do you have, 2) What modem are you currently using (A modem you purchased yourself, An ISP-supplied modem (or modem-wireless router combo)? 3) What internet speed are you paying for? 4) What specifically are you “not happy” about with your current modem?
It is a standard ISP supplied modem. My current modem drops out and is sluggish. It recently went down for five days for no apparent reason. My speed is 100/40.
I was going to say most ISP modems in my experience aren’t very good and it’s best to buy your own (as stated above, a 3.1 DOCSIS modem is what to get if you want to future proof). Make sure you return the ISP’s modem if they charge you a rental fee (most still do from my understanding).
