[c-nsp] Cisco DSL Router As a 'modem'?

Tue Mar 24 11:24:16 EDT 2009

A cisco router, even a SOHO97 is still more expensive than any little simple DSL modem, isn't it?
Anyway, shouldn't you get a modem from your DLS provider?
But if you can spare a 827 or a SOHO then go for it, it will work good, that we can be sure, and you can still get the added value of monitoring the DSL line statistics which you can't have on a regular "blackbox" modem.

How is it too expensive?  If you are doing DSL1, 827/837's, even SOHO87 can be had for a few $$$
