DSL Modem/Router wanted

[Brian Kelsay]

What is the brand of the modem?  It may be supported by the IPCop firewall distro.  IPCop is used in the US and in Europe and they have some fixes added for specific modems.  You would just have to use an old PC that has USB on it.

In case you were wondering: Yes, I would be getting RoadRunner if I could, but 
they don't have service in Andover, England.  I'm not even sure a U.S. spec 
DSL modem will work in the U.K., but it's worth a shot.

My wife got DSL from British Telecom, who's customer service policy is "we 
don't care, we don't have to, we're not only the phone company we're the 
government".  They gave her a USB modem, and the older IBM laptop she has 
won't support it under either Windows98 or Mandrake 9.x.
