I want to replace the router/modem Comcast with a high quality for streaming

@carlsbad2 

I can see why you couldn’t see Roon Core connected directly to the modem. I bet, if you connect Roon Core to the wireless router / network, you will have no trouble seeing all the devices in your ecosystem operating flawlessly. I have taken a single feed from my Comcast modem to my switch which then feeds my three connected devices (DAC, Streamer and Content Server).

I can't get Verizon here, other than 5G wireless service that is, otherwise I would give them a try.

Honestly haven't paid for cable TV in at least 10 years.  Everything I want to watch is on a streaming service.  I had Sling for a while, but forcing me to buy news channels as a bundle instead of picking one or the other was a deal breaker.

hello ​​​@erik_squires,

makes sense now that I see you run ethernet out of your wifi router / switch.

as I have Verizon fios  fiber running into my garage, may I assume that it is relatively free of lightening surge risk?  I also have whole house surge protection on my main meter.
