Acer,
Verizon DSL or FIOS? I use the Verizon router because it's designed for the FIOS service. I could easily purchase one and will do so if/when they start charging a monthly fee for it. In the meantime, it's performed admirably so I don't see any reason to not use it. The fact that it has MoCa built into it has proven very handy.

I have FiOS. Verizon's was a wired router (which is what the deal was for at the time. I adopted FiOS almost immediately after it became available) and of course I moved to wireless. Not sure what the "designed" part adds. It's just a Cat-5 cable where it comes out of the wall and into my router and the service rarely blips. I had an Apple Airport on it for a couple years, and when that went bad I installed a NetGear. I don't see any performance issues (well, aside from some very recent 5G radio sketchiness that I presume is interference related.)
