Re: Verizon DSL modems: Help me choose!

The 7500 supports ADSL2+, 802.11b/g and has a stateful firewall.
The manual can be found at - www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed/General+Support/Top+Questions/Top+Questions.htm - choose Verizon Online

edit : as for recommending a unit to use - Being a gamer, and not planning to stay with the same ISP forever, I prefer to use a simple bridge modem and a good quality gaming router.

Going to the URL above, and typing ""Westell 7500 specification" in the search menu returned many pages, none of which was immediately what I wanted. However, I eventually looked at one of them, and inside it found this link
»onlinehelp.verizon.net/consumer/···uide.pdf
to the user manual. Its not quite a spec sheet, but I would want the user manual as well, so its something.

I hear you: going with a separate router is what I do for myself, even tho I do not game.

But my father-in-law will likely never be gaming, and the simplicity of a combo modem/router, especially given the real low price that you can buy them for, makes it worth it.
