Hello, this is my first post. I'm looking to buy a new modem and maybe router as well. I ordered the 90mbps internet from brighthouse, not sure if its overkill yet, its coming in two days. But i want the best setup to really take advantage of it. I have a mac, pc, and xbox 360 and play FPS games. I have a linksys E4200 V2, should this be fine? What modem should i go for? I was reading good things about the motorola SB6120 surfboard but don't know if everything's compatible. What would you guys recommend?
Thanks

Ah gotcha yeah i know that's a awesome router not sure on modems usually get the one they supply from the provider. That's weird they said nothing about getting money off for having my own router because i have my own. I mean...

That router is bad to the bone so that should be plenty sufficient to hold your connection at full speed. As for modem, not quite sure what this means i know i have Charter and they supply a modem for me. Not familiar with Brighthouse do they not supply a modem for there connection??

They do supply them but in the past I've had 3 bad ones so I'd rather own a good one than rent a crap one. I had charter before and got $10 off a month for having my own router, wonder if they'd do that for modems too.

That's weird they said nothing about getting money off for having my own router because i have my own. I mean its only $30/month right now i wonder if that's including renting there modem?

AND BTW I have the MOTOROLA SB6121 SURFboard from charter seems to work good for now anyways. I think thats the model i have(not at home right now) looks like the one i have tho
