Recommendations would be appreciated. I don't play video games but stream all video with YouTube TV.

Do you need a modem and router build in, or do you have a separate router for wifi already?
Nothing really special about Modems, unless you have Gigabyte connection. Otherwise, hit Amazon/WalMart/Best Buy and the modem box will say on it "Xfinity/Cox/Spectrum/etc.". Setting up the modem should take about 5 minutes, that includes connecting it. I have xfinity and when I installed a new modem, you just go to an xfinity website and it loads the MAC address automatically and you are all set. I didn't have to call anyone or sit on the phone waiting for a "representative".
Motorola and Netgear are pretty good cable modems.
