With a threatening letter from my cable provider that they would begin charging me rent for my cable modem, I decided it was time to demand a new one and get my monies worth.
When the technician arrived, I learned I had no choice but to accept a wireless gateway modem that refused to talk nice with my existing router. A factory reset and an hour later, I had the admin password
to the new modem, which is a surprisingly full featured router. DynamicDNS, port forwarding and DHCP reservations are all supported. If it was in a better location I might even use the wireless capability,
but I know it won't come close to my upstairs access point. Satisfied with the new modems router performance, my trusty Linksys E3000 wireless router is now on eBay awaiting it's new home, and I have one less network device to power.
