        Use an Ethernet connected modem for minimal problems. The Netgear LB modems used to get well reviewed last time I checked. Looks like they may have been superseded.

          @Clouseau Perhaps you can take a look at Nokia's Fastmile solutions... especially the one they call the "receiver" looks interesting.

            LM1200

            $40 from Netgear, $25 from Amazon

            I have the older LB2120 connected to pfSense for dual WAN failover.
