I currently have a Internet plan of 100GB of data allowance per month. And we have had this Router or Modem what ever its called for several years.
It is a Motorola SBG900
It is a Modem connected to one main computer and sends Wi-Fi to the other two computers and my brother ipod, my ipod, my mums Ipad and my father Iphone 4.
I have a Iphone 3, and the WiFi or my iphone isn't stronge enough to recieve a connection to the interent.
Anyway, I have a Xbox 360 and PS3 as well that I very occasionally play.
So what Im sayng is......
I want to keep my existing Modem/Routuer thing the It is a Motorola SBG900 and add in one of these:
Netgear R6300 WiFi Router 802.11ac Dual Band Gigabit
Or
Netgear D6300 WiFi Modem Router 802.11ac Dual Band Gigabit
My questions are:
The clerk at the store told me I could disable the wireless on ym current Modem/Router, and use the new one for WiFi mainly. Als later in future route soem ethernet cables to me and my brother rooms for our devices.
Also my computer guy talked about hom our Modem/Router doesn't have enough bandwidth which my brother takes over the WiFi causing my computer to disconnect occassionally.
So will the new addiontal Router/Modem allow more devices to have a nice steady internet connection?
Also what is the differnce ebtween the two Modem/Routers? All I can see is there differnet colours, and one says modem router and costs more? Does it means its a ll-in-one Modem/Rputer and WiFi?
Sorry for sayign Mode/Routuer alot and for any speelinng mistakes.
