| I would like to use my USB Verizon 720 as a WAN connection on a router and then connect 2 wired computers to the LAN ports. Can this be done and if so how? |

Short answer is of yes.
More drawn out answer:
With an MBR1000 it has 4 LAN ports so all you have to do is plug your computers directly into it.
With a CTR350 it only has 1 LAN port so you would have to purchase another hub/switch.
Both of these products support the 720. |

expanding on the answer given above, take a look at the pix in this earlier post:

yeah, the pix show the UM150 instead of USB720 you ask about, but the application of CTR350 and switch is the same. |

Kewl... I already have a Linksys WRT54G router so all I have to do is plug the ethernet cable from the 1 lan port on the CRT350 into the WAN port of the Linksys. Then I can plug the computers into the LAN ports on the Linksys or even use the wireless.
Thanks |
