Qwest screwwed up my DSL and now I have to go to their DSL service. I already know that they've had a lot of problems with the modem of their choice, due to heat problems. (DSL modem and 4 port router in a small box w/ poor air cirulation.)
What I'm looking for is a GOOD, inexpensive, DSL modem (preferably not USB).
Any recommendations??

If you can pick up a Cisco 678....They are the best

I'd look at D-Link! They have proven it for me!

Thanks guys! :D
I'm looking for the Cisco now, but it might be a bit before I can afford one. :(
I looked at the D-Link, but D-Link has never really impressed me with the quality of their products. :confused:
I'll also check out the Westall BBA. :D

i have a speedstream here in CA for SBC and it seems to do fine, havent had it crap out or anything.
btw...how is Qwest? I will be moving to the Portland area at the end of the summer and will be getting Qwest for dsl as Comcast wants way too much for their service.

I ran qwest dsl for a few years without a problem. This site was run on qwest for years.
