Well I dealt with a location in TX two weeks ago and I talked to RRs tech support to have him telent in and turn off dhcp so that I could set this network up I asked him specifically about why i couldnt use a lowend router "NETGERAR" wouldnt use linksys for a doorstop. Anyway he said that the modem pulls and Ip every 10 days and that by this they have to have specific a router for some sucurity bs bla bla bla well it didnt sound right to me either but i let them hit this lady for the $700 for a br904. Well I just called this guy back cause i wanted a better explination. Well he wasnt there but I got someone that actually knew what he was talking about now. He told me that the modem i forgot the brand anyway it pulls an IP makes sense then it grabs another and forwards it to the set or router what ever is behind the modem now I understand what was up with RR. Needless to say RR has the worst support site for trying to find info on, when needing to find something out. So I appologize for my incorrect post about not being able to use cheap routers on their service. Thanks ...cyberhh.... for making me question this and looking into it deeper. I never thoght it made sense but this lady had been getting screwed around by them for 3 days so I wanted to do anything to get her up as quick as possible. X
