I'm about to buy an ADSL modem - wymondham has been enabled at last - but I'm confused about what to buy.
I bought a conexant internal PCI ADSL modem a while ago as it advertised Linux compatability on the box and I was (at the time) fed up with the Alcatel Frog modem.
However when I got it home I discovered that "Linux Compatable" meant a couple of kernel modules suppiled (no source) and only available for two kernels neither of which I wanted to run. Grrrrrr Even if it did have binary drivers for my kernel, I would be hesitant to use it as I would only ever be able to upgrade when they decide to complie new modules.
So it sits unused and unwanted on my shelf.
