You can use any router with it, the modem is not going to cause any compatibility/performance issues.
What are your wireless needs: how many wired and wireless devices do you have, how much coverage area do you need, what is your current internet provider speed, what activities do you do on the internet?
I would at least strongly suggest a gigabit router; also, a dual band router (n600 and n900 type routers) are nice if you have devices that can utilize the 5ghz band.
