Works with my Verizon DSL First of all auto-connect might not work for some people but manual configuration will work, the settings below is for verizon. I have verizon dsl with dhcp, no pppoe or pppoa, which means i get a dynamic ip address from verizon. I had to disconnect my old modem overnight so the IP address would be release from my old modem, and then plug in my new dlink modem and go into the dlink browser and create new wan setting and enter VPI=0, VCI=35,MAC encapsulation,Routing=LLC/SNAP Bridging,Obtain IP Ad...

Works great - easy to set up. I chose to buy this instead of buying a DSL modem from BellSouth. I am happy I did.

Read this before buying I bought this to replace my old dsl modem which has problems once it gets hot. I received it last Thursday. Got all the info from my ISP. I have a static address using a bridge 1483 protocol. The modem did not work, called tech support, wouldn't you know it, it was in India. The phone connection kept disconnecting. So from Thursday until Monday I called their tech support 13 times. They kept insisting that my ISP was mistaken and that I should use PPP0e which would not work. Finally they ...

A Great Product Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: This thing works well and is very inexpensive.
Cons: None, except that certain ISPs won't recognize the product
Other Thoughts: You know, I see a whole lot of people rating this product a 1 because they are unable to read a manual and do a proper install...or, even worse, too dumb to check with their ISP for compatibility BEFORE they buy it. Why slam t...

No Brainer - Just Works Have had the device for about three weeks. Easy setup with Embarq ADSL under PPPOE. Used the auto config option to see how well it would work but was prepared to manually address if needed. Worked like a champ and has never dropped, hung, etc. Very stable. Can't say that about my previous equipment which is why I replaced. VPN Passthru and Vonage works with no additional configs needed from the default settings. Also, the device "stealths" all external ports to external scanning. Very ha...

A Fast, Easy-to-Use, Bargain Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I ordered this modem to replace an old Speedstream modem supplied by AT&T, and a standalone router. With the old modem and router, I was typically getting 3197bps on my 6mb service. Immediately after installation, speed checks revealed consistent 5745bps downloads from in-state sources. Installation on Socal AT&T was automatic and fast - it took less than...

Troublesome but it works ! Tech Level: somewhat low
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Good solid product from what I can tell so far. Looks very nice with the black and silver color scheme.
Cons: As other people have found out it isn't the easiest thing to get working but it's not the product's fault IMO. Each DSL IPS's have their own settings and one modem won't work on all from my understanding.

Good Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Once it is set up it runs great. I like the one off switch it has on the back of it so I don't have to pull the cord out of it when I lose my internet connection, which happened because of my ISP
Cons: Setting it up to connected to your ISP is a real pain in the behind. I guess if the auto connect thing works your in great shape but other...

. Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Found DSL connection immediately. Easy to configure. Up and running in minutes. Stays connected at highest speed available using Verizon DSL.
Cons: None so far.
Other Thoughts: I'll have to give it more time to make sure it doesn't lose connection like the free Westell verizon sent me. (Piece of junk)
