I live in the UK and currently my house's networking consists of an ISP provided modem/router/switch, I'm wanting to improve our networking but I can't find a modem (not modem router) that is cable connected and that supports my ISP (I'm with Virgin Media if this helps) any ideas for modems I could use? I'm not sure if the Netgear CM series are compatible with my ISP as It seems to be a US modem ? any ideas will help

By cable I mean coaxial but you guys probably already know that though

I would check your ISP's website or maybe call them and see if they have a list somewhere of compatible modems. Some should theoretically be compatible based on connectors but your ISP won't officially support it and may give you a hard time about it if there are ever any issues even if the modem is not the issue
