I started with the CR1000B. I got advertised speed of 300 up and down. But it would often spontaneously reboot, and Verizon replaced it promptly. They sent a CR1000A. It has the WiFi 6E with 6ghz support and is rock solid. But I consistently get mostly 300 down and only max 140 up on wireless. (Wired I still get advertised speed). Sometimes the upload speed fixes itself if I reboot the router but it never stays. I've been considering getting my own router (likely ASUS RT-BE92U).

Both the G3100 and CR1000 routers are really good.

I'd get rid of the fios router completely and get 3 TP-LINKs. Keep the CR1000 in a box for troubleshooting with Verizon tech support.
