None of that is a model number. Look for "Model" on the product
label.

That's nice, but no one here was predicting any problems with

audience are left to guess at what might be compatible with your
service.
And the current guesses are that you might want to anticipate some
problems.

My Web search suggests that that's a DSL modem+router (gateway), not
a cable-TV-type anything.> Router, (Cisco) AT&T VEN401-AT
My Web search suggests that that's a wireless access point, not a
router.
