Does your ISP not provide one? If so, use that.

Are you looking to do anything specific? You won't really find something like a "gaming modem" so you're better off with the cheapest option that gives you the amount of ports you need. The free modem I got from my provider has done nicely

I don't know about your provider, but mine has a list of "approved" modems. You might want to either link to that list, or choose from that list. For example here is the list for my provider.

 

Listing your internet speed might also help.

 

This is the modem I'm using. (Motorola MB8611)

i have wired and wireless devices connected to my network and i want to be able to use QOS to limit data and prioritize my pc and this is a good router that can do that , what youre talking about have almost no features to manage your devices

since you have a router that's doing all the work with QOS, that's why I'm recommending a cheap modem. All you need is network access to the router to let it take care of allocation, if I'm not mistaken

The router will do all the hard work, the modem just connects your router to the internet.

Modems are internet type specific. So what kind of Internet do you have? DSL, Coax, LTE/5G?
