And unless you need/want the full broadband gateway (e.g., you're using it for
wifi, or you're using cable phone service), you're better off getting a pure
modem anyway.
If it's on your provider's acceptable device list, the Arris SB8200 is a DOCSIS
3.1-capable modem providing some degree of future-proofing. I use one myself
for my backup Internet connection through Cox, which is in fact running 3.1 in
this area.

Should get a list of devices that work with their stuff and buy new from
amazon. It's likely any DOCSIS 3.0 device will work for you.
Thanks!
