|  [DSL] Best Modem for Gamer
This is my first post so be easy on me 
I am looking to buy a new DSL modem because I have been having problems with my westell modem.
-My provider is AT&T
-I live within ~6000 miles of my providers CO (At least I think so because I filled out the check availability form on the AT&T website and it said I qualify for 6mpbs)
-I am currently on the 3 mpbs plan
What I value more is reliability more than speed or even to some extent latency. I play a lot of online games (including an MMO) and I really just want to have as little disconnects as possible.
Also should I get a ADSL +2 modem?
I know DSL modems last a while so anything not absurdly expensive should be fine (in the $100 range).
Also as a side question are Modem/Router combos good? I have heard mixed things about them.
Also can you guys recommend a good reliable router, my belkin router is getting long in the tooth as it is not even N.
Thanks guys any help will be much appreciated. |

| If you are having frequent disconnections another modem will usually NOT fix that problem as it is usually a indicator of telephone line problems or distance problems instead.
