Vodafone Fibre Modem

lasno

I currently have vodafone broadband and I am considering upgrading to fibre. In my current setup I have a Cisco/Lynsky router. My pc is hard wired and we have 2 tablets on wifi. Somebody told me that the Vodafone fibre modem is hardwire only and that I will not have wifi for the tablets. Would appreciate any info from somebody with Vodafone fibre.
