A small correction... The modem you are talking about is Samsung E300IL, which as you said a crippled version specificly made for bezeq. The thing is that I am pretty sure that inside its more or less the same modem as E300 , exept for one thing. Its web consule has a non standard password, which isn�t documented anywhere.. and the only difference between the manual for E300 and E300IL is the lack of web configuration in E300IL. Which without it leaves the modem more or less a black( or a blue ;) ) box which cant be configured.
I played with this modem and once I installed pppoe it worked pretty nice, Though still I will never trade my alcatel for this ... never. They will have to pass me first. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Xavier Gentoo Sent: Sunday, January 19, 2003 6:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Samsung ADSL modems On Sunday 19 January 2003 09:19, Muli Ben-Yehuda wrote: > Bezeq just contacted me, saying that they want to replace the ADSL > modem I am currently using with a Samsung ADSL modem (I don't have the > specific model yet).

I'll keep the list posted. 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 rsequest, and the modem doesn't have a CLI setup. If we are talking about the same modems, AVOID AT ALL COSTS. General line: Alcatels.
