Re: [modem/router] New Verizon DSL service with Westell B90-36R5
The 6100 is basically the same as the Westell 327w (4 port wired/wireless modem/router) and Actiontec (same features as the 327w), just with out the extra ports and wireless. It doesn't have a ton of advanced features, but it gets the job done. NAT routing, built in, customizable firewall, port forwarding, etc. All that's needed to setup a simple wired home network with it is a switch. All that does is give you the extra ports needed to connect additional pc's.
