I've got business class. Pretty happy with it.

The device provided has 4 network ports. I have a single static IP. The
unit itself has a static IP on the same subnet.

I don't care what the gizmo does as I control everything behind it. My
firewall, my servers, etc. Mine is old enough that it predates the wifi
units. If you get one of those, you get get them to turn it off or wrap the
antenna in grounded metal foil.
