NETGEAR Nighthawk CAX30S AX2700 WiFi 6 Cable Modem Router [Up to 2.7Gbps] (Renewed)

Bottom line: The NETGEAR Nighthawk CAX30S AX2700 WiFi 6 Cable Modem Router ($204.44 on Amazon as of 2026-10-07): Cable modem and WiFi 6 router in one unit, so no separate modem to rent or wire up; main trade-off: refurbished unit, so cosmetic wear and prior-owner use are possible.
