I am very sorry, Lisi.  You are right.  Are all modems routers?  I did not 
know that.  Since I got it it was called a modem.  I have only thought of it 
that way.  Foolishly when I typed the information in, I wasn't looking for or 
expecting any statement that it was a router, quite frankly I have to pause 
before using the term on either, because I mix them up some.  What I have 
considered my router is much larger.  It has a WAN port and four LAN ports.

The Modem/Router has only the LAN port.  Or is it a WAN port?
