So a friend of mine was tagged in a photo on fb. it's of a Merc ML. the license plate is "LANDO", the family on the back windshield is of two storm troopers and an imperial walker, and the letters on the vehicle have been changed from ML 350 to TK 421. i

I've had it done with zero problems.

I'm returning this thing, anyway (Netgear WNDR3700). Its signal isn't even as strong as my NEIGHBOR'S wifi, and definitely not as strong as the crappy Actiontec they gave me. WTF?

Strong wifi, so you can share your bandwidth with the crackheads down the street? Weak signal does not leave the premises.

Like the man said - bandwidth. And this stupid Actiontec has problems allowing wired-to-wireless communication (and vice versa). Plus, it allows Verizon to snoop with a well-documented back door that you can't close (tho I've managed to just block entire Verizon IP blocks to get around that).

And my shit is secure. More secure than others, anyway, which would present as softer targets.

Have anymore info on this backdoor and how to close it? The OG FIOS install that I had at my place in Silver Spring actually had ethernet connections to the router so you could use your own. They "fixed" that in the newer installs though.

My install in 11/2011 used Ethernet I'm using their router becAuse of the tv stuff but have a 24 port switch, 3 cisco routers and a sonicwall for testing behind it

Damn. I guess I shouldn't expect any less.

I've got an 8 port patch panel I installed and punched down myself, and a 5-port gigabit switch. Another reason for getting a new router is the gigabit ports. Maybe I'll just see if I can hack this old Actiontec with DD-WRT, since they said it was too old and they didn't want it back. Of course, it still doesn't have 802.11n (just g).
