About
Modem Router Combo Devices A modem router combo, also called a gateway or all-in-one, combines a modem and a WiFi router in a single device. Instead of connecting two boxes with an Ethernet cable, you plug one unit into your wall connection and it handles both your internet service and your home WiFi network. This collection includes refurbished combo devices for cable, DSL, and fiber internet, each tested and verified to work on its supported networks. Buying your own combo eliminates the equipment rental fee most providers charge, typically $10 to $15 per month, or up to $180 per year. Most gateways in this collection pay for themselves within the first year of ownership. Why Buy Refurbished from ModemGuides Every modem router combo we sell is Grade A refurbished, tested by hand in the US, and backed by a 90-day full-coverage warranty. Since 2015, we have been rehoming quality networking equipment instead of letting it end up in landfills, so you get proven hardware at a fraction of the retail price. Supported models also qualify for our activation guarantee, and our US-based support team is available by chat and email if you hit a snag during setup.
