Can I use my own router with Windstream internet?

Asked a year ago
Yes, you can use your own router with Windstream internet. Windstream allows customers to use their own routers, as long as they are compatible with the Windstream network. To ensure compatibility, it is recommended to use a router that supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) and VDSL2 (Very high bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2) technologies. By using your own router, you have more control over the network settings and can customize it to meet your specific needs. However, it is important to note that if you encounter any technical issues related to your own router, Windstream's customer support may be limited in providing assistance, as they primarily support their own provided equipment.
