I'm attempting to get away from paying the rental fee on my router without breaking the bank. What are your suggestions on a decent router/modem combo for a DSL setup. I tried to get help at best buy, drove an hour to the store and explained the situation and got a blank stare from the associate who then pointed out a Netgear product that "works for everyone and is on sale". I get home and realize the combo unit I was sold does not support DSL.

In my quick searches. I've come up with this.

This will need a separate router. Essentially any wifi ac router will work as vdsl tops out at like 300mbps with 35b

You may just be able to buy your exact model of modem off of ebay to be honest as well.

It is hard to recommend something without knowing what exact vdsl profiles they use

1 port mach speed and warp meet sound like marketing terms and not a actual spec.

I do see some devices marketed with g vector but thst also sounds like a marketing term for vectoring.

Sorry for not being able to provide a clear answer.
