Re: Taking the step to change internet providers, and need help.
said by Sasba858  :Does anyone know how I would get the FastAccess DSL Direct to operate without dropping Charter first, as it is hooked up to my current modem. If you configure the motorola for ip passthrough, you can switch between cable and dsl by changing which modem is connected to the routers wan/internet port.
Is your phone wiring prepared for dsl? |

I know the lady that lived here had a AT&T land line phone only. Would that phone wiring be all needed to get FastAcess DSL DIRECT 3.0? |

Pearl River, LA | My Vonage modem is hooked up to my Belkin Router just like my desk top PC. From my Vonage modem telephone port, I have a telephone line going to the base unit of my uniden. All the other hand units hubs just plug in the wall electical outlets. |

One other thing you should check out is the nid and its wiring and test jacks. |
