Hello,

 

I am looking to buy a new modem/router to save money on my monthly bill. My budget is $200 USD and I was wondering if it would be best to go with an all in one modem/router or a separate modem/router. Does anyone have a recommendation for combos that are supported by TWC? I would prefer to have 802.11ac and IPv6 support as well. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

seperate is always best, but first whats your download speed, since that will determine how  much to spend on the modem? (twc has a list of supported modems here http://www.timewarnercable.com/en/support/internet/topics/lease-or-buy-modem.html)
