The Question: Can I use a dsl to ethernet converter to connect my modem-like thing to the router.
Ok, so I just got the Asus RT-AC68R dual band router which uses an ethernet cord to connect to the modem and I currently have a modem like thing that has a dsl connection. I say modem like because it isn't a modem, its something that is mounted onto the wall and leads outside.
We are with North State and are using their Fiber Optic internet.
Here is the converter I speak of:
I know nothing about networking system so please explain why or why not and what these different parts do if you can .
