In Reply to: RE: My router is not the issue... posted by AbeCollins on July 16, 2016 at 11:24:26:
the VOIP phone line is an output of the Fiber Modem so they claim there is not that much special in the Pulse Router they rent and seem to be saying that I can use ANY good true Gigabit wired router to distribute Ethernet fro the Fiber Modem to the Cat 5E that runs throughout the house.
Has to be able to 'assign IP addresses', whatever that means.
Sadly, I don't know a WAN from a LAN so that's why I am asking.
And again, as it will be in the garage, I can get WiFi from my existing Apple Airport/Time machine, albeit it limited to 'n' speeds.
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
