I've seen a Samsung modem. The problem with it is that it had a firmware that 
is specially crafted for Israel (it says so in the manual and the firmware 
itself has -IL tag in the version). The web setup is disabled per Bezeq's 
request, and the modem doesn't have a CLI setup. If we are talking about the 
same modems, AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

General line: Alcatels. Only Alcatels.
