The Pros:Not very configurable. Battery backup in case the power goes out. Both for high speed Internet access as well as VOIP.
The Cons:No user configuration whatsoever, so the user it completely at the mercy of the settings the factory or ISP provides for you, which may or may not include blocking ports.

#arris_tm602g Not very configurable - status page is hidden @ 192.168.100.1, but once you find the page it is helpful - battery backup sounds good, though I've never had to use it, and even if I did, my router's lack of power would render it pointless - overall, it works well most of the time, but it can be a pain at times, just like any modem. I suggest resetting or "power-cycling" it if you run into issues. Good phone quality, and fast internet.
