2 edits | This is a typical situation for me. I just hit the »AT&T Northeast link and I got this after waiting several seconds. This happens enough of the time to be very annoying.
Note: My Modem is about 4 years old. It obviously works....but......could that be the problem here?

| My fater has a brand new modem from his SBC/dsl installation a few months ago. Could I use that? Would I have to configure my router differently? |

1 edit | if your router is handling the pppoe then you shouldn't have to do anything at all.. If his modem is a 5100b and he had it set up to do the pppoe then you would have to put the modem in bridge mode, again that's only for the 5100b modem. |

| So you think it could be the modem then Mr.Fixit? Based on the info I provided? |
