Re: XP/4060 Problem USB modem? Well, I for one wouldn't use one either.
I suppose if the ONLY thing you have on your USB port is
the DSL, then it "might" work ok, but add a USB mouse, printer, or ESPECIALLY a camera and you will exceed the
bandwith limit of the usb port and since it's a shared
bandwith, it will disconnect the "session" between the
USB port and the DSL modem. I guess that's what happens
anyway 
I had a friend on a USB cable modem and she was getting
knocked off anytime she printed, or used her USB camera.
I got a NIC, hooked a CAT5 cable to her cable modem and
it's rock solid stable when she prints and uses the camera now. |
