I was reading some sites, trying to see who makes a quality DSL modem because a friend of mine has DSL on AT&T, and sometimes he says the connection flakes out, and I'm confident his ancient DSL modem is to blame. The internet light never comes on, either although it shows activity. I would have opened it up to see if it has bad caps, but AT&T is telling him that if it's working, they won't replace it; don't touch it--I think that's BS, personally.
Anyway, I came upon some users saying they built a NAT box (which I'm not familiar with) which acts like a router, to replace the actual router, and they claim their connection was improved. Is this really the case? If so, what does one need to build on? I have a some servers with dual 100Mbps which I could repurpose for this, etc.
What say you?
