<font size=2>Unfortunately, that router does not seems to include a

that customer demand have that interface integrated). I saw another model

You are correct, the WRT54G does not have any type of MODEM in it.
You would need to use an external modem if you chose to use it. The
WRT54G is based on an embedded linux kernel and linux based routing
software. The QoS (in the sveasoft firmware) is Wondershaper and
works quite well. However, I don't believe (as mentioned by another
poster) that the Linksys firmware QoS allows you to set the inbound and
outbound capacities for use by the QoS system, so it may not perform as
well. I can only comment on the sveasoft firmware, since it is the
only firmware I've tried.<br><br>
To be honest I'm not sure how sveasoft handles SIP traffic. I know
that if you read the boards they have implemented some specific features
just for SIP traffic. I do know that when I tested the router, I
saw a huge difference between non-QoS operation and QoS operation.
With QoS off, large downloads or uploads would completely destroy my VoIP
quality. When I implemented the QoS in the sveasoft firmware, the
calls were perfect regardless of the traffic I attempted to push or
pull.<br><br>
