Want to optimize my gig speed wifi router

I researched and purchased an Arris SURFboard SBR-AC1750 wifi router and am pretty happy with it.   I researched cable modems as well, and as luck would have it, my ISP had an Arris Touchstone CM8200, so this is now paired up with my SBR-AC1750 wifi router.  The router has a 4 port switch/hub built in and this feeds out to my network switch and then throughout my house which is hard wired with CAT6 cable. As I enter the router menu, there are all kinds of settings and I would like to completely optimize it for my gig speed internet cable modem service.  What do you experts recommend? Also, if you have suggestions for the cable modem settings let me know as well.

One thing to do is to make sure the router throughput is adequate. My Cisco routers have 800 - 900 MBits/sec internal throughput
