My current system is an Arris Surfboard SB8200 modem to a TP link XE75. It’s worked well for about a year but now the TP link has been giving nothing but trouble and to finish it off one of the 3 Ethernet ports stopped working. TP link is going to replace under warranty but I want a more reliable option and probably use the replacement TP link as an access point. Would this work?
