Typical things I would check for are the chips that are closest to any of the outside interfaces as they more likely get blown off first.
- DSL receiver/driver chips. These are interfacing directly to the phone line with minimum protections and I heard of several cases of damaged chips. There are some chances that you can buy these parts (Analog Devices, TI etc)
- Power Supply voltages. Probably okay if you can already talk to the digital side of the modem.
Beyond that, not a whole lot you can do as the main SoC is likely a BGA parts as least in the case of the ST-516 V6. |

| Not like you can order the big SoC easily from the vendor easily or that replacing the BGA would make any economic sense for you.
I would recommending looking at the driver/receiver chips in your bone pile. That's the soic-8 right next to the sticker SB10A in picture (ST516V6). It should be very common froml the analog chip vendors were selling their DSL driver/receiver chips - fancy opamp parts.
You are looking at a $1 part and a 2 minutes replacement job. |

You are looking at a $1 part and a 2 minutes replacement job. The 2wire doesnt have such a chip. It has a 100 pin flat pack frontend chip (ST20184). It does the work for sync in a 2wire., Digital out is fed into the microprocessor, and vice versa. |
