I recieved my Netgear DGND3700 on Monday. Installation was a snap. I am running 1.17NA firmware, this required an upgrade. The DSL connection has been stable all week, as well as all wireless connected devices. So far, I would recommend this modem. Unfortunately its not cheap at $180. But with the refund from AT&T on my 2701, its like getting it for $80. It also fixed my WPA2 problems and allows me to separate my G network from my N network since its dual band. So far a great device, but time will tell. I'm so happy my 2wire is back in a box!

Sources have told me that the 2701 and other "legacy" gateways and modems are being replaced due to the need to support the IPv6 requirements that are being pushed out as we consume all the IPs available in a IPv4 world. The 2701 has been in the field for almost 5 years and pretty solid for a gateway this old, yes modern day apps like WOW and others have maxed out the modem's capabilities it sounds like, but these apps and such were not there when it was built. It is a lower cost gateway and that is what AT&T wanted then my source told me. I also heard that the 2Wire or Pace as they call themselves now also have a N gateway with extra memory and mutiple processors for todays users coming out or ready to be sent out. Guess we will see it whenever AT&T lets it out into the streets.
Never a dull moment, if there is there will always be drama to replace it..

I'd be careful that the Pace Router isnt just another 2Wire... they are the same company now. I believe AT&T is also qualifing a Netgear product. I'd go with the Netgear if you get a choice.

Someone sent me a message earlier today asking if the pace 4111n is a gigabit ethernet router as well. I don't have the correct answer at this time but I will advise when I have that answer in more detail.
