I guess it will be like that.
By using USB, they are trying to keep people from using Linux based
routers, for which they normally do NOT make drivers. Also no support.
Well, three times the price is obscene!!!
If you plan to buy the modem, then the prices are:
Alcatel Speed Touch USB Manta 168.09 EUR (euro)
Alcatel Speed Touch Home - POTS 217.97 EUR
Alcatel Speed Touch Home - ISDN 248.90 EUR
Router Efficient Networks SpeedStream 5660 - POTS 394.05 EUR
(this is just for fun :)
Per month you will pay this, according to the leased bandwidth:
Fee (EUR euro) Traffic
limit (GB)
Option 1 - 1 Mbps / 128 Kbps 124.69 EUR 10
Option 2 - 768 Kbps / 128 Kbps 79.80 5
Option 3 - 256 Kbps / 64 Kbps 44.89 2
And though we do have a traffic limit which spoils completely the
opportunity
to have a home brew site, it is still a good option.
I personally think it sucks! It is too expensive and limited service.
But I'm digressing...
I still think you should opt for a Pentium based router with on board USB,
if that's your choice!
