Is it causing issues? 

What speeds do you pay for? 

it isn’t the fastest device but if you’re not paying for the fastest speeds, it’ll still work fine.

I am paying xfinity for (Download speed: up to 200 Mbps, Upload speed: up to 10 Mbps)

should I upgrade my existing surfboard SBG6782-AC and if so do you recommend an alternative modem/router combo?

Please help?

If it gives you full speeds and your devices aren’t having issues, then I wouldn’t worry about it. The longer you wait, the better device you get when you upgrade. 

If you’re running into issues, let us know what they are (with a full description) so we can better help. Sometimes it isn’t upgrade the modem/router, sometimes its switching to a modem and a mesh system. Or simply adding an extender. Details are key to proper help
