of the off-shore Linsksys technical support people could answer any technical
questions I had about stand-alone cable modems, and a high-level
factory-resident support person was unable to identify that such a web
screen existed when I asked directly about it!! I spent many hours on
the phone trying to get real info.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
