Re: FIOS Cable Modem
FIOS only uses Fiber optics and ONTs.
Cable modems are only using on Cable ISPs.
Cable modems are not compatible on FIOS or Fiber ISPs.

The best place to ask for help is the ISP. It should know which hardware works on its service.
What technology is the Frontier FIOS ISP?
How does it deliver the Internet to you? It seems to come in different flavours depending on where you are and what you subscribe to.
Is it cable that needs a modem or is it "fiber" that comes with an Optical Network Terminator (ONT)?
Whatever you get, AC1900 means nothing much. It is not a reliable guide to model number. Many devices come with an AC tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and other brands, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
Netgear makes several AC1900 devices. The C7000 in your footer is a cable modem/router. It would be useless with a fiber service.
If your ISP supplies an ONT to get the internet to you, then you just need a router, something without a built in modem
