I'm helping my sister lower her cable bill by installing an outside TV antenna (Boston area) and using VOIP. She needs internet only. She has an ONT with an ethernet jack already installed in her cellar from a previous install. Verizon told her that she will have to pay $5 per month for a router, or buy an Actiontec MI424WR or a Westell 9100EM.
I have a Linksys WRT54G and a Netgear WNR3500L sitting in a closet. Can the $5 charge be avoided by plugging one of them directly into the ONT ethernet jack?
