I have the Westel combo DSL modem, router, and wireless access point as provided by Verizon. With the account name and password stored in the Westel, entered through the Westel's html interface, the inside connectnions require no further verification. It's jusst an ordinary LAN. No5tte, do not install Verizon's Windows software, just configure the Westel from the html interface.
