It's an Actiontec PK5000 with 4 Ethernet ports and a firewall. I shall revisit the config screens to confirm the settings, but my preference would be to use it for the DSL modem and add another [$35] Raspberry Pi running Pi Hole.

Pi-hole has the ability to block traditional website advertisements as well as advertisements in unconventional places, such as smart TVs and mobile operating system advertisements.
