If I buy a router from someone like Asus will I automatically just get Wifi? (alien.top)

i’ve never had Wifi outside of what’s provided by Xfinity. If I buy a Router from someone like Asus do I have to pay an ISP to provide wifi through that router?

And if that’s the case what are some good resources to find out what ISP works best for me?

We almost got over it and now we have 5G(hz) wifi as well. That has confused so many of my friends.

Just had to explain howcome the non-5G wifi also connects to your internet, as they are just different methods of connecting to the same router, and also, you have 4G internet , not 5G.
