Zoom Adsl Confusing to Set up, but woth it [Posted on 2004-05-03]
My Bellsouth-supplied DSL noden, an Alcatel, went on the brink after 2 years. I bought the Zoom ADSL USB modem. It took me about six hours of trial and error to get the right protocols to get on and surf. The problem is not so much the software as finding the protocols. The 'normal' USA protocol 'PPPOE" did not work. Unfortunately, Bellsouth only supports 2 modems, and could not tell me the setup for any Zoom. PDF documents at Bellsouth and Zoom were not helpful. I finally found some hints in a DSL Reports forum.
The modem is working fine now. It is small and can be placed anywhere around the computer, and speed (941/218, out of max 1500/256) is good.
For the price, it is an excellent buy.
