Does anyone use Verizon DSL with a wireless Actiontec FT704-WG router?
They have now sent me a third one of these that..shocker!...does not work properly. The last time I was on the phone with tech support for hours (literally) trying to do some upgrade to it that was a "work around" to a technical issue with MS Vista. Didn't work. I gave up and haven't spoken to them in over a month.
In an effort to finally get a wireless connection my wife called (I refused). After getting the run-around we finally caved and said we'd pay their $2.95/mo "warranty" for this ************* on the condition we could cancel it immediately. The router shows up and it doesn't work.
So it's sitting here again. Anyone have this problem and a solution?
Can we just buy some other wireless router and plug that in and use it just the same?
I f-ing hate Verizon with a passion I never thought I would feel.
