Router and Modem? How's this?

Forum Wireless Networking : General Discussion Router and Modem? How's this?

Word :    Username :           
 

I'm moving so I need to get a router and modem for the new place. I will be using cable internet and either have the 15Mbps or 30Mbps internet plan.

I was wondering if this modem and router combination was good for what I stated above. And if they'd work together without any problems and/or bottlenecking. My ISP also made it clear that the modem must be DOCSIS 3.0, which it is. So, does everything look okay?

Router

Modem

Thanks!!

While they should work together fine, that router does not have a gigabit switch build in -- only a 10/100mbps. I would either get a better router, or just get the modem with built in dual band n and gigabit switch like THIS.
