Hi all, I’m getting a 75mbps plan from xfinity, seems like I should get my own modem and router.

I live in a one bedroom, and my usage would not heavy. Watch streamings, youtube, zoom calls, maybe some ps4 online games. Most of the connections will be through wifi.

Which modem and router would be the most bang for the buck?

I was looking at ARRIS Surfboard SB6183 Cable Modem (amazon), and apparently I will need a router for the wifi, so was looking at TP Link AX1800 Wifi 6 Router (amazon).

By saying “future proof” I meant if I get a roommate in the future with similar usage, would the recommended device still do the job well?

  • Is wifi 6 necessary?
  • What would be the capacity of the modem and router for future proof?

Thanks for your time, hope you have a great day.
