Hey, so I think you need to find what frequencies your ISP uses for docsis 3.1
Then your moca (I'm guess you have maco 2.0) modems should be configurable to use a frequency that doesn't clash as...

No, I don't think so. If you are not going for the speed, e.g , 1 Gig service, this modem will not give you anything more than a DOCSIS 3.0 modem.

I've heard DOCSIS 3.1 and Moca use the same frequencies, will this play nice with my gocoax moca adapters? Does any one have any experience with the two?

I concur. MB8611 is a better deal, not to mention that Motorola offers a two-year warranty versus one year by Netgear (and Netgear support is free only for 90 days).

Buy them separate for max performance, together if you want to spend less, have less complexity, but get less performance. A combo is never going to match a separate router and modem.
