For use under Linux, as I've said, the appropriate choice is *NEITHER*. There's now a driver for an Alcatel USB model, and I know of a driver for one rare internal DSL modem, but otherwise they're both boat anchors. Order the service with *NO* modem and buy your own external Ethernet-based modem instead. Post to comp.dcom.xdsl for advice on specific models. -- Rod Smith, rodsmith@rodsbooks.com http://www.rodsbooks.com Author of books on Linux & multi-OS configuration
