So my dad wants to get the new Orbi 960 router but we’re not sure if our current DrayTek Vigor 130 modem is compatible. Is any kind of modem compatible with WiFi 7 mesh systems or maybe we need a built-in modem? Any help or insight is greatly appreciated! I’m asking because we have the Netgear NightHawk X10 but the house has a lot of lead etc. and wondering if the problem could actually be with the modem rather than the router. Hope this all makes sense! Thank you:)

    Well, the modem has a RJ45 gigabit capable connector that connects to your router so that will work. The Orbi 960 however is 10GbE WAN capable, but you’re not gonna see those speeds on a ADSL/VDSL service.
