Have Bellsouth (now ATT) here, the 6M/512K. Started out with the westell 2100, then they sent a 2Wire 1100 for homePNA with USB adapters for the kids computers that I'm still using, about 4 or 5 years now. They've since discontinued that 2Wire for a wireless one. It's done the job, though I've had to reset it a few more times than what the other guys are saying. And it's better now than at first since I put in an outdoor splitter at the NID and replaced some old phone line with CAT5E. From the supported list I almost bought a Netopia 3347W off Ebay recently but backed off since this one works fine.

Seems ok for now. Odd, that they have a really weird list of "compatible" modem(s) I may be able to choose from. <please see below> OK, I did play the entire afternoon on chat with the "att person." Still don't know what might arrive? Completed the order. It crashed! Someone/body did not care for something I chose. (maybe like all the "security" add-ons I by-bypassed.....) so, Here is my question: (!!!!) Is there a top-tier xdsl modem I can buy and use w/ATT? (ATT wants $75 for their supplied modem; and, it may be re-furbished!) What their "compatible equipment" list shows is: 2Wire, HomePortal 1G/1M/1100 Residential DSL Gateway (never heard of them) 2Wire, HomePortal 1000SW Residential DSL Gateway (never heard of them) Efficient Networks SpeedStream 5887 (external ethernet) (never heard of them) Westell WireSpeed DMT (external ethernet) (not sure of WesTell?) Hmm...............(your comments?) I will search further tonite.... :) Have a D-Link DGL-4300 Router just waiting to connect....... (and, Hayes, it works well. Complex LITTLE sucker I must say!)
