So I've done a little reading here and there on the forum and other sites, put two and two together and inherited a few things. I have a Planet FGSW-2620PVM managed switch, a NETGEAR R7000, and Slingshot fibre running over their atrocious Tripleplay150 to the ONT. I'm not a super network engineer but I am smart enough and can follow directions. Just looking at the ingredients in my recipe can anyone tell me if I can do away with the ISP's offering and get the R7000 to run the show, maybe using a Linksys PAP2T-NA for VOIP phone services or should I just suck it up till something consumer comes along with VLAN taggable?
And yes, I'm not a typical 'end-point user', I have lots of internet hungry toys and gaming consoles always on and the tripleplay drops its nuts on a daily/weekly basis (third faulty one I've had from my ISP).
