Upgrading Vodafone router

Stone Deaf 4evr · 2019-11-21 17:29:05

Hi, all, apologies if this is in the wrong place. I'm thinking about upgrading my home router, I currently have the standard issue Huawei hg658c, which only offers single band WiFi. I've noticed that this Netgear router is fairly well reduced at the moment…

Hi, all, apologies if this is in the wrong place.

I'm thinking about upgrading my home router, I currently have the standard issue Huawei hg658c, which only offers single band WiFi. I've noticed that this Netgear router is fairly well reduced at the moment

My query is - how straight forward is it to upgrade to using a separate router? Can the huawei be essentially used as just a modem while the Netgear handles the WiFi etc? And has anyone already done similar? TIA.
