Probably not. Their accounting and service depend on a MAC address, and if the new ISP looks for a MAC address that is not on their system (the Qwest router), the service won't 'handshake' and won't work. The idea behind it is just like satellite TV tuners.
You have a choice, sell the router to another Qwest customer, or use it as a 'switch', which provides more ports on your network for more pc's, printers and devices that need to get to the internet. If it is a wireless router, use it to extend the reach of your wireless coverage at your place. |

The PK5000 is an ADSL modem. It will work with other DSL ISP, but it will not work for non-DSL service.
