Has anyone ever tried to use the Alcatel Speed Touch USB dsl modem with WinXP? I'm pretty sure this modem isn't support on WinXP, but a while back I upgraded to XP and XP told me that I couldnt use the modem with XP. I went and tried to connect anyway just to see what would happen and connected but would be disconnected every 2 minutes or so. Then I tried about 20 different things trying to get around it hehe. Hey doesnt hurt to try ;-). Anyway, found out later on when I got a Geforce2 that you can't install WinXP with a Geforce2 card in your computer either (will hang on the install process). You have to put a temporary video card in other than the GF2 and install then put it back in and it works fine.
Anyway, the point is since I now have a new video card I want to upgrade to XP, so I need to order a new modem from Bellsouth that supports XP. The question is, what would be the dsl modem I would need (or that you recommend) and any thoughts you have on this. Out of curiousity.
