Gigabit Lan Cable
I am excited to find I get the Gigabit connection next month. I was wondering if I need to upgrade my current set up. I have a NetGear Nighthawk r7000 router. It is gigabit capable. And I have Gigabit lan cable for most but not all of my runs. I have cat6 on a few. Do I need to upgrade? Will Cox supply the appropriate cable? Is that Router acceptable for this use?
I appreciate any comments on this!
Thank you, Jerry C.

The Nighthawk R7000 is actually better than the Router that Cox supplies for their G1GABLAST installations. They use the Netgear R6300, so you're definitely good there, just make sure you tell the installer you want to use YOUR router and not theirs.
