Hi,
I am new to DSL and networking and just received my
installation kit for SBC DSL today.  I will be using HPNA
with my existing phone lines to network two computers,

I'm posting this just in case other's are having the same problem.  I
have come to find out via broadbandreports.com that, atleast 2, Netgear
routers can not access any internet address that has an ip address that
end in 255.

5 months, 10 calls  and 8 hours on hold so far to verizon and
counting.................
I had DSL for about the past 3 years with verizon supplying the
physical dsl connection into the house at $47.00 a month on my phone

Q: How do I get the maximum possible DSL or cable modem speed?
Should I use one of those tweaking programs?
A: See the Navas Cable Modem/DSL Tuning Guide at <http://Cable-DSL.home.att.net/>.

I'm wanting to get rid of all my ethernet wire.  I'm a DSL user, and want
to get recommendations for wireless access points that work well with the
Cayman DSL modem/hub I have.

I was wondering if it would be possible a Alcatel

I'm currently working in KL, Malaysia and left my US broadband router
at home.  Picked up an in-expensive router (Dlink-704P) here in
Malaysia and it has served me well for my 'home LAN'.  However,

Is there any reason that my DSL speed has decreased since I replaced
my CPU (1700xp+) with a Athlon 2400xp+. It used to be some 1,470,000

I have had a lot of problems lately with my Earthlink DSL connection.
My connection is frequently dead for several hours at a time.  I have
had Earthlink DSL for nearly 2 years now, but these problems seem to
be something new.  I can't tell if it is the Earthlink DSL service or

I'd like to know what current supply does this router need.
I ask because on the linksys.com site its data sheet
ftp://ftp.linksys.com/datasheet/befsr41ds.pdf speak of "9AC 1000mA",
does it really run on an alternate power supply ?

Hi all, and thanks for the responses to my earlier questions, I am quite
happy with the system now except:
I am still getting (very) occasional hard errors when using the Speedstream
5100 modem that came with my SBC Yahoo setup.  I have now removed ALL the

I've got COVAD IDSL (only thing avail. - too far from
CO for anything else).
Originally, I was set up bridged with a fixed IP,
and my up/down was about 135-137, which

I am looking to buy 2 NIC for a home network and would appreciate any and
all reccomendations.I am looking for wired cards.
Thank You

presentation), text, you know, university job :)
