I found an article online that listed the top replacement modem/routers and separate modems & routers. I wanted a combined modem/router unit as it's simpler, fewer boxes, etc. and went with their next to the top pick, a Netgear AC1750. Street price on these is around $150 but I found an 'open box' unit for a fraction of that on Ebay and couldn't be happier. It doesn't support GB speed but supports my 600MB just fine. Their top pick was another Netgear unit that goes for $350 which was more than I wanted to spend especially if I didn't have to.
