220608 2004-03-07 22:42:00 Hey Tideman, I'm pleased to see that I'm not the only one who has had problems with that anus at DSE Riccarton.I took back a radio control toy I had bought for my Kids because the radio gear was faulty(I'm a TV Tech by the way)He couldn't exchange it as I had bought the last one and,as it was a present required for the next day,I demanded my money back so I could go elsewhere,and boy did he get uptight.Needless to say I have not been back to that store since(I now drive from Hornby all the way to Northlands if I want DSE products).

220609 2004-03-08 02:46:00 Thanks for your comments everyone. Has anyone had any experience (positive or negative) with the $97 DSE ADSL modem? somebody (208)
220610 2004-03-08 05:02:00 My comments are generic regarding internal ADSL modems.

Unless you absolutely have to, don't go that way.

Consider security and future flexibility (networking) and use a router.

220612 2004-03-08 09:38:00 I suspect that the DSE ADSL router happens to be the XH1149 product?

I'm looking at it now, the price is good, and I don't really want to spend a lot of money on an ADSL router. Is this the same one which you had problems with?

Several people around here have that router - I use it for one.
I find it to be a reasonable router with it's only real letdown being the web interface which could do with a good overhaul. Apart from that it does everything I need it to along with more.
As for setting it up, how hard is entering a logon name and password?

220614 2004-03-08 19:18:00 Thanks cyberchuck. How easy are the advanced features in the web-interface (eg. pass-thru connection settings etc.) to use? somebody (208)
