Mine burned up and the stingy phone company won't give me another one. I'm on ATT phone co. Will any modem work or does it have to be a certain kind? Anybody got an extra one laying around?

I may have an extra 2Wire from SBC/ATT.

I'll look around later.....

Any one will work.

You could just go to best buy and get one...

I might have one I'll send pretty darn cheap.

Not trying to be a jerk here, but do you know how to set it up? ATT would come and set it up for you.

No, they won't. I set up the first one. I had to borrow a computer to do it.

I'm 100 percent certain if you buy another modem from them (or you can probably lease it for a small fee on your bill every month) they will come and set it up for you.

I did it less than 6 months ago and they would not come out and install it. Telephone support only.

I just went Clearwire, screw the new AT&T.

Sit there and have tons of advertising for the past 20 years bragging about what they are going to deliver and have delivered nothing.

Sorry Skip. Thought I had an extra. No such luck.

I did. They are thieves. "Introductory offer" is $29.99 for 6 months (with a contract) then it goes to $39.99. DSL is $12.99.

That's pretty nice of him. I'd give you mine but I paid too much for it to just give away.

I agree. It is very nice of him.
