Okay, if you want help, you gotta be able to follow your own train of thought here. I'm not going to walk you through your own mind. My own is scary enough.
Now, what is this about me making assumptions of one modem is better than another because of age? What are you trying to say? Are you implying I don't know what I'm talking about? Let me tell you something. I work for AT&T Worldnet technical support. I work with dial-up modems eight-hours a day, five days a week. I know a good modem from a bad modem, okay? Don't come in here telling me my business. If you want help, fine. I'll offer it. If you choose to not use my help or heed my advice, fine. That's your choice. But don't come in here wanting help and then telling me, before I even give an answer, I'm wrong.
We've answered all your questions, and you keep asking the same questions over again. READ THE PREVIOUS POSTS!!
Frankly, right now, I'm not in the mood to answer your last question. Maybe someone else out there who hasn't been jaded by your ignorance and effrontery will answer. If you think you know the answer, do some research on your own.
