And it came up with some links to BestBuy and Walmart. But rather the suggesting one to you and risk steering you wrong I would suggest going to or calling a local BestBuy. The are pretty good there and will help yiu pick the right cable modem/router.

Most likely it will be one thst uses a protocol called DOCSIS 3.1.
