I went to Radio Shack and purchased the Qwest approved ActionTec GT701R modem.

My company has about 150 remote locations (out of just over 600) using Qwest, and those Actiontec GT701s are GEMS! They're terrific little routers, capable of running in "unnumbered mode" which is great for using along with a VPN router. I don't think that in over a year we've had a single problem with any of those GT701s. Sometimes convincing Qwest that the problem's on their end can be hard though (but that's really not too much different from most providers!)

My ISP prefers for me to use the GT701 in transparent bridge mode. I let my Linksys router host the assigned static IP on the WAN side. That gives me good control over all the routing of services behind the firewall. It even hosts another Linksys VPN router behind the firewall to a couple other sites that serve as integration labs for my railcar work. It's pretty good setup.
