Advanced Wireless Gateway

Does Spectrum offer an Advanced Wireless Gateway for my service—a one-piece modem/router combo—so that the Spectrum gateway is the internet-facing router/firewall while I keep my Cisco RV325 behind it for wired ports?

    Hi @tonyczar, welcome to our community! We don't offer all-in-one modem/routers anymore, they are separate now. You can connect your own router straight to the modem instead of ours, or if you want to keep our router for WiFi and use your own router for additional ethernet ports make sure to disable NAT/DHCP/Firewall, or use a switch instead.

    Alternatively can bring your own modem, but there are some caveats. Limited list of approved modems, and with pending changes it may restrict which plans you may be able to use. Would have to manage your own wifi (so you can have that charge removed from your bill), but if using their phone service, would need to lease a modem specifically for that, which can complicate your wiring a bit. Wierd little things like that.

    They have a page dedicated about it. May have to sign in or update this for your zip code to get accurate details:
