About this Item:
ARRIS Quality: With over 260 Million devices sold in home connectivity, we are the experts in making quality networking products! ARRIS Mesh Wi-Fi systems use cutting edge technology to deliver the fastest speeds throughout your home (indoor & outdoor). Count on our technology and expertise to virtually eliminate Wi-Fi dead zones in your house, outdoors, on the 2nd/3rd floor, basement or attic. Experience the difference of combining extensive mesh processing & the built-in benefit of Wi-Fi 6 (at 400% faster speeds and range then Wi-Fi 5).
The SURFboard mAX Mesh Difference: As you move around your house or you launch that streaming service - the mesh network will adjust to optimize your experience. Bursting with premium components & technology - we invested in Tri-band (2.4GHz/5GHz/5GHz High) design and Wi-Fi mesh algorithms that ensure your devices and your network are always operating at peak peformance. Significantly reduce buffering, delays on your devices and high ping rate for gamers. Our unique approach to maintain a 1Gbps connection within your system enables you enjoy true gigabit speeds throughout your home.
Tri-Band System Creates 3 Express Lanes: One band for connecting the routers, one for connecting slower 2.4 GHz devices & one for faster 5 GHz devices. We dedicate an express link to maintain your 1 Gbps connection between your routers (nodes). The result: true gigabit speeds throughout your home. Each router has eight Wi-Fi 6 streams, delivering speeds for: audio & video conferencing, HD & 4K video streaming, Alexa Connectivity, online gaming simultaneously at speeds up to 11,000 Mbps & up to 6,000 sq ft of coverage!
Simple and Secure Set-up: The SURFboard Central app provides step-by-step instructions to set-up, configure and manage your network. Once setup is complete, the app provides real-time monitoring of the devices on your network, enhanced parental controls like setting time limits, pausing internet, QoS, guest network, parental control rules, and much more!
App Designed to Meet Your Smart Home Needs: The app provides parental controls, who's home, QoS, guest network, IFTTT, IoT, device pairing & more. Parental controls allow you to setup rewards based activities for your children. Once an activity is complete, reward them with things like screen time or even virtual currency. The Who's Home feature alerts you when someone is connected to - or disconnected from - your network. Enable the IFTTT feature to connect with third-party brands like Sonos, Fitbit, Ring, Phillips Hue, Google and many others.
Get Ready to Experience the Difference: Replace your slow Wi-Fi router with the mesh system to support your needs for years to come.

He said multi-gig Ethernet, i.e. 2.5G or higher. Those four ports are all Gigabit (1G). WiFi 6 doesn't really matter much for multi-gig, but 6E and 7 transmit higher than 1G speeds so they need the multi-gig WAN ports.

Also if you have multi-gig internet (I presently have ~1.4G), you can't even use it unless the router has at least ONE multi-gig port. And if you have at least one client that you want to be able to exceed 1G, you really need to hardwire it because even wifi 6 and 7 aren't going to cut it in most real-world circumstances ... so, to be minimally useful with multi-gig Internet connections, a router needs to have at least two multi-gig ports.
I finally gave up and bought a cheap-o mini PC off the ali- (seller of cheap chinese goods that shall not be named on Slickdeals) express, put pfSense on it, and started running my routers in AP mode. It works great, but I'd love to go back to an integrated setup. I also need to find a mesh setup that lets you put the various 2.4ghz nodes on different channels. Yeah, I know this is rude in the city, but my closest neighbor is 300-400ft away so it doesn't really matter if I monopolize the entire 2.4ghz spectrum :-D.

Yes, I get that, but many people don't have multi-gig and will likely interpret the OP as saying the router doesn't have any ports.
