[Internet] BrightHouse Lightning and VOIPI have standard BH RoadRunner with their Scientific Atlanta WebStar cable modem and my own dual-band wireless router and a Vonage VOIP box. I am considering upgrading to a combo offering from BH that would have the Lightning internet service and the BH internet phone.
Does the Lightning modem/router box (UBEE??) also include the VOIP function, or will I still have a second "box" to do the BH internet phone?? I do plan to go with "Bridged Mode" Lightning and continue to use my own wireless router if that matters. |

Howdy,
It will be an all in one D3 gateway and yes you can bridge no problem and use your own router. If I may ask what is the make and model of that router? |

Cisco/Linksys E3000 Router being used today. Hoping to upgrade to an ASUS RT-N56U at some point. |

YAY on the Asus...let me know if you need help there...the future is bright for that beast. The 3000 will work for now but I wouldn't stress it too much like torrenting from hell because it will choke on you eventually. For the average stuff it should be fine though. |

Any opinions yet on the Asus RT-N66U? |

Not yet Sam. Based on the initial release problems I've stayed away from the device. As initial rollouts go the 66's was not what I would call good but as you know things can improve quickly. |

I placed an order for the 66 which is delayed 2-4 weeks (probably waiting on firmware updates). I think it will be a worthy replacement for my DIR-655 once they solidify the firmware. |

I'm still pretty stuck on my 56u to be honest. Let me know how it plays once you get it. |
