General Comments

Had a lot of trouble with this modem when I first got it. It used to disconnect and both lights would go off on the unit. Only solution was a reboot the machine. This was all due to the modem and my VIA chipset. I took a bit of time getting the right BIOS and USB upgrades before the modem was stable, but all the instability was caused by my machine and not the unit itself. I think the SpeedTouch USB unit gets a lot of bad press due to problems with the via chipset and their incomplete support for USB.
