Netgear Nighthawk R7000-100NAS Dual Band Wireless and Ethernet Router, Black
Hello, I had seen the newest
Netgear Nighthawk R7000-100NAS Dual Band Wireless and Ethernet Router, Black. On an At&t forums and I was wondering if that this type of router/gateway would work through At&t carrier service of there At&t internet carrier?
Thank's.

Only if you provide enough information.
The R7000 is a router. Unless you have something like fibre broadband with its own terminal, a router needs a modem of some sort in front of it.
If you ask Google to tell you about the "2Wire 2701 HGV-B", the results are confusing. It looks like an ancient piece of kit that might also be a router. If so, then you will have to work out how to turn off its router bit.
To get more Ethernet ports, all you need is a simple switch.

Can you explain what you want to know?
What does this bit mean?

I'm baffled, but that is easily done.

Why are you baffled? I think as to what I had asked is pretty straight forward question? I had asked if that this type of router would work with At&t Internet? The router that I currently have is a 2Wire 2701 HGV-B(Black) I'm looking for a router/gateway that has atleast 4 port's on the back of the router in order to connect my smart tv and gameing system along with connecting my desktop computer to Ethernet.
