Fiber optics with the C7100v modem/router combo
How do you (or can you) connect At&t fiber optics (ONT) to the Netgear C7100v (voice) router/modem?

Because the C7100V has no WAN/Internet Ethernet port, it's generally
useless as a router in a non-cable-TV environment.
A cable modem+router is not _absolutely_ useless without a cable ISP
connection. See, for example:

But it _is_ useless as a _router_.
