New DSL Modem for MJ+?

Post by rlbumich »

Hi all,

I've been using original mj since 2008. Yeah, I've had my issues but now MJ+ is out. I've seen it at RS in my area. But my ? is will I have to possible replace my Motorola DSL modem(which has one ethernet port) in order to use mj+? If so, which DSL modem one would recommend? Also, are there any DSL modems with two ports? Don't need four ports only need port for connection to Desktop and of course MJ+.

Bottom line is that not only will I have to pay $70 for MJ+ and a new DSL modem$$. Looking at about $100. Also, my old mj subscription ends next Feburary 2012. So, I am thinking holding off buying mj+ till then. Oh yes! Still have to pay to have old mj number ported to MJ+ (If I can). Wow! Some serious loot here!
:shock:

Cheers

Just add a Linksys router and connect it to your DSL modems Ethernet port, you will end up with 4 Ethernet ports.

Check Ebay or other sales sites to save money.
