Lost ethernet interface on dsl modem due to lightning storm.

[philipuso]

I'm running an actiontec GT701-wg dsl modem for internet service. I had a lightning storm take out 2 ethernet devices on my network(2 switches) and the ethernet port on the dsl modem. The modem still works great but without the ethernet interface.

Is there any way to use the wireless or usb interface and some how convert it to ethernet so i can still use the dsl modem and some new ethernet switches to get what i had before???

DSL USB is Not compatible with current Wired, or Wireless Routers.

USB to Ethernet device is s computer client and its USB must be plugged to a computer.

Option 1. Buy/get a new DSL Modem.

Option2. Connect the USB Modem to a computer and use ICS (works but not flexible and Quirky).
