Agree with my good friend td_miles. There is absolutely zero value in paying a premium price for a 1000Tx Ethernet enabled router to connect to a T1.<br />

I am upgrading a network connection from DSL to a full T1, and a bit worried about what CSU to get from T1 vendor. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Is it worth going to a T1 router with a 1000TX Enternet port for the price, and what are some recommendations?<br />

The vendor offers a free Netopia 4622 and 4652, which have 10/100TX port.

Benefit and recommendation for 1000TX CSU for T1

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
