Bryan,
Thanks. I made a simple call to the marketing side.
Learned that "their" FIOS service clips into my internal phone wiring.
OK. But, my internal phone wiring is broken ATM. I know. FIX IT!
I know! I know! Working on this......
Yes, did wish to continue to use my DLink DGL-4300 router.
No, Need a new "modem." Have no plan to use either of the ADSL modems
from the Phone Company! Should I look at Surfboard from Motorola?
OR,.... do you mean that my Router's WAN port could be just connected to
JUST a RJ11 PHONE Line?
I know. More FIOS learning for me!
BTW, my pending FIOS (15M/15M) is now $57.99/mo. Seems steep. But WTF!
Nothing's cheap any more............. :)
Best,
Duncan

You would just need a decent router to share the connection with your
computers/lan. It's possible
you already have a good one. They should provide the phone equipment, in
theory.

My electric service provider
http://www.epbfi.com
has notified me that they can now offer me a FIOS connection for
"internet" and "tv." What they call "FI-Phone" comes later this year.
I have waited 3yrs for this!
No, I do NOT know how much yet. Still digging. I do know that the basic
offering is 15M/15M (~$45-$55/mo). I'd like to think about this.
How do I start to figure out what "my-side" boxes I need to start
shopping? I have never seen a FIOS connection!
I understand CABLE. I have/use ADSL. I would so love to completely fire
my current ISP (ATT) and their "dial-tone" phone line.
So, seeking experience, suggestions, etc. ATM.
TNX,
Duncan
