Router Recommendation
We resisted going to Xfinity as long as we could but OTA doesn't work in our location and we were only interested in local channels. Decided to minimize cost for bandwidth and equipment that would still enable us to watch and record live tv using a pre-owned Tivo Bolt and also support streaming via Roku. Signed up with Xfinity for their minimum Internet and TV Bundle ignoring all of the advice that we needed megabytes of bandwidth. We purchased a relatively inexpensive Arris SBG10 modem/wi fi router that is rated up to 300 mbs and Xfinity is supplying 50 mbs (per on line speed check). We are using 4 computers, 2 Rokus, Amazon Echo, 2 Amazon Fire tablets, 2 Ipads, 2 smartphones, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and when grandkids are here multiple video game devices. This has been our configuration for over a year and a half with no problem (knock on wood).
