Billion UK Forum

I did try to search this forum, like the forums rule thread, says first but it kept telling me the following and I didn't want to use more keywords to risk confusion.

You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.


I want a 7800N, I think its a great, but I keep being unsure to buy it, but I need to ask this:

Is the 7800N a modem router?

I ask this somewhat stupid question because whenever I look to buy this online I see either modem or no modem in thew details:
(used eBay just an example, looking for the best deal I can)

Billion BiPAC 7800N 300 Mbps 4-Port Gigabit Wireless N Router

Billion BiPAC 7800N Dual WAN ADSL2+/Broadband Wireless-N Gigabit Firewall Modem
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Billion-BiPAC ... %26ps%3D54

I am hoping it is a modem router but I have made the mistake in past where I bought a router thinking it would be a modem router. The information on the Billion site isn't very clear about this. It is annoying for me to ask this seeing I am on a final year computer-based course at University & also included a placement year as a ICT Technician.

I just don't want to make the same mistake again and be out of pocket a lot more thank last time.

Thanks

It has and inbuilt adsl modem so you can plug it into your master phone socket. However it also has a ewan port so that if you have fibre broadband (BT infinity) you use the BT supplied fibre modem and connect the ethernet cable from the modem op to the ewan port on the 7800N. Then configure the ewan port on the 7800n for ppoe.

So it supports both std adsl and FTTC/FTTH.

so just to be sure, any 7800N has a built in modem, then?

Really don't want to make a mistake.

Yes it has a built in modem for ADSL.

thanks a lot, sorry to sound so dim, but I really needed to be sure. Hate wasting my time & that includes buying stuff that turns to be not what I wanted or not to work.

Thanks again

No problem glad to help. )
