verizon supplies modems, some of which have routers built in

You can still use an external router with one of those. If you're going to be shooting files back and forth across the network, streaming HD material, etc.. you'll appreciate the N. Sure you can do it with a G, I do, but speed is awesome, especially when backing up data if you can't do it across LAN alone

and as far as moving the FIOS cable, I think I'd rather just run cat-5 from the router downstairs if needed
