Wrong. I've had two calls to Verizon about down time and on the recent
one, all I got while getting talked through a reset was "we don't
support Linux or Belkin routers..." I wasn't required to boot into
Windows. If things got crunchier than that, perhaps I'd have had a
problem, but if you're getting their supported Linksys router, then it's
really not going to ever be a problem.
