From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

then you should get a commercial router compatible with openwrt
Or, I keep using my Fritzbox, which is a single device and does everything I want.
As far as I know, there is no cable modem/router integrated device.
the option i suggested is also a single device.
most commercial routers can run openwrt. you dont need a specialized device.
I still need a cable modem. And as far as I know, none of the ones that can be used with my provider support any other OS.
thats something you would have to discuss with your cable company, and they would probably tell you to fuck right off.
i wouldnt recommend you to mess with that anyway if you dont want to have a variety of problems.
