Ok, think I might be the stupid one here.
So, just moved house and am getting PlusNet installed at the weekend. Everything online suggests that their routers will not go modem only mode. I've got a RT-AC88U that from my previous flat that is only a router without a modem.
It seems fairly sensible then that I'm going to need myself a modem to put in between the router and socket, but finding a modem on it's own seems remarkably difficult. Everything seems to be modem + router in one these days.
Is the best option here buying a cheap modem/router and turning off router mode on that? Or are there some legitimate modem only options out there?
Thanks.
