Apparently the catch is that if you want the 1.5Mb, you need the new modems (701 or 678). -----Original Message----- From: tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org [mailto:tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Jima Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 11:38 AM To: Justin Krejci Cc: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Subject: Re: [tclug-list] Actiontec modem and accessing your web page On Tue, 12 Jul 2005, Justin Krejci wrote: > On Wednesday 13 July 2005 10:04 am, Jima wrote: > > Yep.

If, for whatever reason, you still had a CAP line and needed a replacement 675, though, I'm sure *plenty* of people would be willing to give away their 675 for the cause, assuming they haven't thrown them out already. > Also the actiontecs may need to have their firmware updated too. Possible. I seem to recall the firmware upgrade page for the GT701 not saying what version you were downloading, which made it rather difficult to figure out. I needed the line up, *then*, so I switched it out.
