Yea so I got Verizon FiOS like a month or two ago and I have a spare DSL modem with no use.
Currently i just plugged it in and named the SSID "Free Internet" thinking it would fool some one.

Anyway and good use i can put to it?
It has 4 Ethernet ports
It's wireless
and a RJ-11 port for the phone line associated with DSL.

Could i maybe turn it in a hub or something?
Or is it useless?

Here are some Google images that might help.

Change it to something like 'The-couple-at-number-16-have-kinky-sex'
Or
'Password-detector'

A hub is a device in which you can connect more then one computer to the internet!
Say your modem has only one port for only one computer, well if you have more then one computer you need a hub. A hub spits the internet connection to go to more then one computer.
Its like a surge protector, you plug one end in and the surge protector has 6 outlets, so you can now plug in more stuff.
Same concept just with internet
