" The ONT port is for connecting to the Optical Network Terminal for a FTTP (Fiber to the Premise) installation. Don't mess with that port.

ok. i took it out. will there be any problems in the future if it used to be plugged in? also my ipod has a slow connection to my router with a 160+ ms ping and less than 1 mbps connection when all my laptops and pcs get a good 20 ms ping with 20 mbps download is there a solution to that?

Delete and re-setup the wireless connection on the iPod. If that does not work, you may want to switch the encryption method on the 2Wire's wireless settings to AES only instead of AES/TKIP.

What is the empty, green Broadband port for then? The Ethernet incoming is plugged into the Red ONT Port. There are four others for Ethernet out.
