Which router should I choose?

[banker]

I'm trying to find a new router and modem as I'm still using the Mediacom provided router. I'm in between 2 things.

Pros: I hear the range is great and has ai mesh technology
Cons: Expensive and still need a modem with a telephone port

Pros: Cheaper considering it has a modem bundled
Cons: Don't know much about Arris Products

My wifi package is 100mbps (Hopefully 200mpbs soon) and it's bundled with TV and Phone with Mediacom. If you have any other suggestions I'll happily take them (Especially if they're cheaper)

After looking at the install instructions I am now somewhat confused. They show using a model wcb2500c near the router. These units are much more expensive.

I am now wondering if you can really hook 2 of these together. Maybe that is why they are so cheap. These are the first moca units I have seen that you can not just hook up 2 the same they work. Maybe they do but that is not what the simple install instructions show.

I'm going to contact their support team, thanks for all the help!

I looked up to see if the technicolor t8717t has moca and apparently it has moca 2.0, so no adapter needed
