Replace My Arris TG1682G

[pranaman]

I signed up for Xfinity, and am renting an Arris TG1682G modem/router.

I'm fairly technically inclined, so I thought to just buy my own. The thing is, the power goes out several times a week, up to 3 times a day in this old building, so I am debating whether or not to replace it.

Should I? If so, what is a good alternative?

I fail to see how replacing the router would help overcome the frequent power cuts problem -- LOL
