“Hello, I recently purchased a Netgear CM1200-modem for my home. Does this modem requires a router in order to work with multiple devices? Also, Is if I need a router which one of this do you recommend: Netgear R7800 or R7000P? Thank you!”

If I read some other reports about this modem correctly you can't attach a device to each port and expect it to act like a router, correct?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello Pablo, The Netgear Nighthawk CM1200 is a modem with 4-ports you can run CAT-5 or CAT- 6 cable directly to your computer or other device. It is basically a cable modem router. I run a Cat-5 cord directly to my Amazon Fire TV and one computer. The rest I use the WIFI to connect. I already have a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 DOCSIS 3.0 but I recently upgraded to Cox GIGA BLAST and needed a router to handle the speed - The CM1200 DOCSIS 3.1. So you don't need a router but you can connect one if you choose. Either Netgear router would work. Always look at the Port Speed Connection as well. Hope this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes you will need a router to go with it. Honestly I use myself the NetgearAC2600. I never have any problems of any kind. My neighbors had trouble with their internet all the time. I got them setup on this setup over the weekend and they are very happy
