can /g/ recommend a good modem/router? What are the pros and

Haven't had any problems with my Netgear N600 combo.

/g/ will probably want you to buy something much more expensive.

looking comfy lad

>>62100055
lol fat boy

The /g/ answer is some Arris cable modem + pfSense + AP (Ubiquiti, Ruckus, etc.).

If you're looking for something simple a modem and an Asus RT-N66U with Tomato served me well for years.

I never understood why they couldn't keep the Motorola name on it. But it's still a good product.

Thank you lads

I guess my next question is,I'm sure that whatever I get, it SHOULD be good for a few years,granted I don't have a defective product.Will a DOCSIS 3.0 modem give me okay speeds should a 1gb connection ever become available in my area?

Do you know the difference between a mode & a router?

>>62101349
two different functions as far as I know.

A modem is for a single direct connection to a device.

While a router takes the signal and provides additional connections to the modem.

I'm not the most familiar with online networks,which is why I came to ask /g/. I really just want a solid connection for myself,my roommate,and all of our friends when they come over.I'm not really interested in paying a rental fee for my ISP's basic modem when they charge for troubleshooting and repair/replacement calls that don't involve the physical cable connection itself.

>>turns 360 and walks away.

how did you manage that lad?

How much of a router do I need to properly handle gaming, video streaming, a couple wireless devices, and the occasional torrent? Do more expensive routers provide any benefit to things like latency? Or is the extra cost of more expensive routers mainly due to stuff like USB and wifi functionality (it seems like all the really expensive routers just have more antennas)? How much router does one man really need to be satisfied?

Ahhh poor newfag.

Just make a pfSense box with Intel Gbit NICs

>>62099364
>modem/router
That's called a gateway senpai

>>62101761
memeposting is not an excuse for mistyping and yet somehow feel superior for that. that was the 90s way

>>62101775
but sempai wont that be difficult?

>cheese pizza

called the cops
called the fbi
called Chris Hansen
we're having a pizza party

>>62101837
It's 100% not a mistype, anon, come on.

>>62101936
Meh it's pretty easy as long as you know a little bit about networking to setup a basic pfSense box. If you don't trust yourself I'm pretty sure Netgate sells a little ARM computer with pfSense out of the box.

>>62101837
The mistype is the meme, newfag

>>62102083
I just acknowledged it's a meme... Are you dyslexic or just plain retarded?

>>62102112
Where do you think you are :^)

>>62102152
i think that you are subhuman shit head that really don't deserve any acknowledgement and I do feel sorry for you shitting on any parade you can find is the only remaining means of your effective communications with the world, even if it just compressed down to an anonymous image board on your phone.

It didn't have to end up like that, but you chose the world of misery for you and all around you.
Feel sorry for your existence and eliminate your ways (or just knock yourself out by hitting a corner of your table with your temple really hard, you stupid dumbass)

Daily reminder that pulsed fields at microwave frequencies, eg "wi-fi", cause brain damage, infertility, immune dysfunction, and potentiate cancer. Do not get a wireless router if you at all value your working memory, dendritic arborization, spatial memory, or overall mental health.
