    Nov 6, 2008
    Pros: easy setup; nice control panels; good wireless range; Mac&Win setup disk & utilities
    Cons: wish Internet light would blink to show activity; lights glare; needs printed manual

    Summary: vMy Westell home gateway has been slowly dying, so AT&T sent me this modem/wireless gateway yesterday. Instructions were sparse, but the lion's share of the setup is done by the installation disk. It has drivers for both Mac OS X and various versions ... read more

    Pros: It can hold down papers on yoru desk from blowing away.
    Cons: Slow and it tries to be all things to too many people. 

    Summary: I have work with network systems for 20 years and I have seen the good and the bad. This modem is definitly one of the bad. First fo all lets start with the buggy interface. It allows you to create mappings for ports to mac addresses of

    Pros: Somewhat fast.
    Cons: Frequent broadband/DSL errors. Not the best support out there

    Summary: Although somewhat fast, this thing, every day, seems to return "broadband link unavailible" or "DSL failed to connect" every five seconds for five minutes at a time. We've rebooted the piece of junk more than once, then called AT&T, and they told us to

    Pros: Easy setup, no problems connecting to the Internet.
    Cons: Power adapter failed - seems to be a widespread problem

    Summary: Needing a new modem/router I purchased one of these via Ebay. I had no problems setting it up. But good thing I kept my old modem; the power supply failed on this 2wire model. Looking around the Internet this seems to be a very common problem. I've

    Pros: Easy to install
    Cons: Horrible support from ATT and lousy life expectancy with the product itself

    Summary: These modems keep freezing on me.  I have had to replace two within the last two months.  And getting support from "Bob" in India is nothing short of infuriating.  My recommendation?  Skip ATT and Skip 2wire. In fact run,
