CBK753 vs RBK753 and modem

I have been having a problem with my EERO B010001 mesh router.  It shuts down unexpectedly.  Since it is in a remote location, my internet connectivity is down until I can visit and physically reset the EERO.  So, I need new equipment.  I am afraid that the same thing will happen if I buy separate modem and router devices.  Is this an EERO deficiency or should I only consider combo devices such as the cbk orbi?

  • Something to contact EERO mfr for help and support information regarding there product. 


    Some ISPs don't support or do FW updates on user owned modems so having a separate modem and router mesh system maybe best. Otherwise check with the ISP first to see what is supported on there system first. 

     

    The CBK is a built in modem and router. The RBK is  router system only.
