Speed Stream 5360 DSL modem is good or best?

[denny]

Thanks,
on ebay, I see that Westell 516 is the cheapest modem. Want to check two times before I bid. It works well with Ontario DSL ISP & do I need to configure it?

If you are thinking to buy a brand-new DSL modem Speed Stream 5360 in US$ 76.00. I includes 4 phone line filter & 1 wall port. It also supports G.DMT.

3Com Home Connect Dual Link ADSL modem is best for my office network or not? Is It compatible with latest technology or not? How could I see that?

The 3Com Home Connect Dual-Link ADSL Modem….

3Com Home Connect Dual-Link ADSL modem has a built-in router/hub so it supports sharing of the ADSL line,

[Charles]

Is the sharing of computer supported by modem, by simply plugging in additional computer? I want to know that the connection between IAM.net & 3Com Dual link modem is good or not?

[michel]

Please give me the information about Efficient Networks 5500 series DSL modem. Is it best or not and the performance is? Is this best with OPEN Web ISP?

[Charles]

Efficient Networks 5500 series DSL modem has built in router. So it doesn’t show many problems with routers over bigger networks.

If you have an Ethernet based modem, you can buy a router to connect it to. Some modems have built in routers, and only a very few routers have built in DSL modems.
That’s good for networking people…

Get Verizon model 6100. I have it it on my Emac with 768k.

We use the dlink 2320b on all of our installs. It works great in bridge mode (not so great in pppoe though)

I've also heard great things about Speedstream...
