Re: SBC 2wire modem with Earthlink DSL

Re-reading my post..they are very confusing. The 2wire modem I have was sent to me from SBC along with an SBC DSL instalation CD and an SBC logo on the modem. Now I am not sure if the Broadband light is orange on account of it is trying to connect through SBC? I am not to smart when it comes to networking.

Re: SBC 2wire modem with Earthlink DSL

Use the Earthlink Code and try to connect. You will need to see what the LEDs mean as I have no idea about 2Wire. The SBC code will most likely not work with EL I don't think.
