I wanted a better router for gaming since there are other people using my network so i found this router but was worried it might not be compatible, can anyone tell me if this one will work?

In a word - No. Its a cable router, so you would need a modem to plug into your connection. You may already have one if you have had FTTC for a while, but seriously, that router is even more basic than the cheapest ISP one.

Thanks a lot, is there any modem that is a reasonable price that you would recommend for gaming?

[#4]

Are you already using an Openreach FTTC modem? If so, you could continue using that, although you should consider getting something with an integrated VDSL2 modem, because the Openreach modems won't be supported (in terms of firmware updates) for much longer.

Sorry im kind of new to these terms, I have a plusnet hub one router, though the options for gaming on the router are quite limited.

You say the options on the Hub One are quite limited, in what ways is it limited and what would your ideal replacement do?

Well i've read on this site also that PN routers are quite bad for gaming, which i don't know if its true but also i want a QoS option and more of the sort since my family also uses the internet at times that i do and this sometimes causes some more latency/ping issues etc.
