Used DSL Modem with BellSouth? |
|
|
Hello,
I have DSL with BellSouth, connecting through a USB DSL modem. This
does not allow me to hook up a router, so I'd like to buy a new one.
BellSouth wants $100 for a Westell 6100. I did a quick search on eBay,
and found DSL modems for about $15 delivered. Thinking about buying
one used. Is this a good idea? Any specs to look for?
Thanks in advance,
Andy |

Make sure it is a modem that Bell South uses. I have been told that some |
modem/routers can be proprietary. I bought one for one of our sites off
Ebay and it was fine. In fact the modem was for a Verizon DSL hook-up.
The software was not fully compatible but we got around it. I believe
Bell South has a list of approved modems and routers on their fastaccess
site.
