ChrisH Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I need a smoothwall compatible ADSL modem for home as my netgear router is becoming very problematic now as its gettng on for 4 years old and needs reseting alot for some reason . So I am building a smoothwall box from an old compaq SFF and need a modem. Must be USB. I know some of you probably have one in a dark dusty draw from when you bought a router . Will pay postage etc and could stretch to enough money to buy you a pint or two as well. Cheers Chris
Wizzer Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Do you mean the odd blue thing like this? http://www.chipweb.de/dsl/nic_photos/speed_touch_usb.jpg I've got one that I plan to change for an ethernet modem/router soon. If no-one else can come up with one you're welcome to it when I get round to changing (in a week or so).
Sylv3r Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Chris I have a Alcatel Stingray Modem if you still need one.
Wizzer Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I've just placed an order for a new one if you are still looking.
ChrisH Posted February 3, 2006 Author Posted February 3, 2006 Hi wizzer. Yes I am still interested . @Sylv3r sorry I missed your post until now. I quick browse of the smoothwall forums reveals a few problems with that stingray modem but thatnks for the offer . Tbh theres complaints about the frog as well but theres lots of people who say theirs is working fine so that will do for me .
Wizzer Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Are you sure mine is not a stingray too? It certainly has that "flat fish" kind of look. Did you check the image link I posted, this is what I have: http://www.chipweb.de/dsl/nic_photos/speed_touch_usb.jpg
ChrisH Posted February 3, 2006 Author Posted February 3, 2006 Hmm dam your right :oops: hmm I would still like to test it in that case though just to see if things are any better now with newer patches of smoothie and firmware etc.
ChrisH Posted February 3, 2006 Author Posted February 3, 2006 Actually can I get back to you on that. Helps if you put thompson and not alcatel into ebay :oops:
