What is the "coax cable from the wall"? It may or may not need a modem, depending on what sort of Internet you get.
Ask your ##Internet service provider what equipment you need. It may offer to rent of sell you something. But most will let you use your own equipment
Xfinity is an ISP. All ISPs that I know of charge for access.

I would never recommend anything without knowing what you need. We don't all live at the bleeding edge
Go for the cheapest that fills the bill and meets your budget.
Try plugging your needs into the filters on the product pages:
Wireless Routers for Home | NETGEAR
and
Orbi: Whole Home WiFi System for Better WiFi Everywhere | NETGEAR
