John, Thank you. I do not do wireless at all. I remain prehistoric. I will go look anyway............... :) Best, Duncan At 14:13 07/30/2008 -0700, you wrote:

The service is getting sketchy........ I use the WesTell 6100 dsl modem. Yes, I do have it set for "bridge mode". I'm sure this violates my TOS, but I was not willing to put my entire lan on the subnet of the modem (192.168.2.x). And yes, I do use a router for my lan. The router is my firewall. OK. Have I missed some subtle setting in the modem? I am willing to go through the task of "speaking" to the modem and either re-train it, or, beat it into submission......again?...... :) Other than this, are there other (3d party) dsl modems I can look at to replace what I think is a real brick on my lan? Thank you. Best, Duncan
