That router looks fine, DOCSIS 3.0 (or 3.1) is all it needs to say to know that it should work.
When you say "main box", do you mean Set Top Box? What make and model is that?
You need to connect your SmartTV to the Internet to make it Smart. Is it connected wirelessly? That would be enough, but you could also use MoCA to connect it, potentially. You can get your own MoCA bridge on Amazon, try this Motorola product:
