Is this a wireless Router and Modem or router only

Hi. This is a router only. Do you need a modem-router? Let us know and we will do our best to help.

This just emits a wireless signal. The modem is normally what you need to worry about being compatible. Based off that fact, yes it is.

No, that model is both a wireless router and a modem in one. Nicer than having two boxes to deal with. All the instructions you need are on line at the Motorola web site and they have a help desk too.

Yes, Router will be needed to connect wireless devices. Modem is a short of access point to access intrrnet from your service provider but using ethernet cable. You can buy separate router and create your own wireless network.

It's both. But the router is lousy. I went back to my older Netgear router.

It is a router only, not a router/modem combo. It will work behind a cable modem to provide wifi, but not in place of it.

NO - It is simply a cable modem. (I used mine as a replacement for a TWC rental). Mine is hooked up to an ASUS wi-fi router.

I don't know why someone wrote it's only a router because it's both. All I have is this one box and so many wifi devices connected to it. iPhones, roku player, amazon fire tv's, laptops, wifi printer, and an apple tv. Oh and Dlink wifi cameras too. I love modems with built in routers. I never had to use a modem and a router separately before. Wouldn't even know how to hook the two up. I guess I'll watch a YouTube video just so I could have a clue. But yes this one box is all you'll need. My internet provider is Comcast.

All the other answers are correct, but what many people may not realize is many "modems" are configured as routers too. You need to determine that first.

If you have DSL, this is a modem, router and access point. It will provide wifi and internet connection (with an appropriate account) however the refurb unit I received disconnected so often as to be useless. At the very least, I'd stick clear of refurbs.

Yes, this is a router and modem in one. With 4 ports on the back. I have T.W. cable, and had to register it with them. The one I purchased works great.

Yes, you would also need the modem. The internet provider I am currently using provided the modem, but I needed to purchase the router - so it is not "all in one".

No, it's just a router, not a modem. Depend on whether you want to have DSL (CenturyLink for example) or Cable (Cox etc), you will have to buy a DSL modem or a Cable modem. You can save some bucks buy a modem/router combo like Actiontec 300 Mbps Wireless-N ADSL Modem Router (GT784WN) (DSL) or NETGEAR N300 Wi-Fi DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem Router (C3000) (Cable). Good luck!

This is not a modem, this is a router. You should get the difference clear and make sure you know what you need before you lay down any money.

The MODEM is the unit that must be specific to Cable vs DSLThe router works with the signal from either modem

It is just a cloud router. Rent/buy a DSL modem also with it. Best router I have ever had.

This is a router only. It will not work with Centurylink unless you have a modem as well.
