Re: Stay with Actiontec M1000, or upgrade to Motorola 3347?

I have both and tried to trouble shoot problems and in doing so I found out that my line from the CO to the Crossbox was damaged over the years by techs installing more lines. They say they'll fix them one day. Soon I hope.

Anyway, in doing so I finally ended up with the M1000 with the latest firmware bridged to my Netgear router and it's great. I have installed the 3347 in the past and for those installs it worked fine. But when I got one myself I found that it lacks features that I have come to need and the M1000 can accommodate them. One thing is there is no POTS jack on it. You'll need a DSL/Phone splitter.

So the M1000 IMHO.

You must have some really specialized needs. I have not worked with the 3347, but I have used the 3346N-002 (essentially the same unit without the wireless); there is a very extensive set of configuration options. Hard to imagine anyone needing more than this.
