New Cable Modem and Some Issues

Sounds good!
Any suggestions for a router? I need to attach two computers plus have wi-fi.

Any of the major brands will be good. Prime day today and tomorrow. Other retailers are having sales too. You should be able to get a decent one for $80 or less. I'll post if I see an especially good deal.

This one looks good but you can go cheaper and still be okay.

Chances are your cable modem does NAT and it's safe to use (it's actually PAT but everyone calls it NAT). Are you sure it doesn't have built-in wireless? Some do, some don't. It might be turned off. If you can find the model we can look it up.

I have it working again, internet and Wi-Fi. I hated to spend any money so I used an older gateway modem. Seems pretty good. According to the TV connection strength is excellent.
