Tag Archives: dsl modem

I live in Macomb county in Michigan and I have a question about People PC internet service?

My computer is hooked up for DSL service only. I need a new DSL modem box from SBC but Im afraid it will cost too much as my one year warrenty is over. The box switch I believe is broken and sometimes it takes me almost an hour to get the box to go on pushing the little power button in the back of the box because when I take my finger off the button it goes off. So….anyways, rather than pay most likely about 70 bucks for a new modem box I was thinking of switching to people pc but Im not sure if they have dsl service or is it only dial up? Also would like to know if anyone has this service and how they liked it. Or….do you know how I can maybe fix my modem box or get a new one for 20 or less dollors. At radio shack (found it online) they asked close to 70 dollors!! That is outrageous for such a cheap little plastic box. Help please

How do you send and receive a fax with a dsl modem?

I have two modems–a dialup modem and a dsl modem. Can I use the dsl modem to send and receive a fax?

Can I use my DSL somewhere else like i could my dialup?

in other words i travel out of state and my relatives do not have internet so i hook up my computer and change the phone numbers so they are local and were good to go but can i do the same with DSL or Broadband. There are no numbers to change so how do i know if its local so as to be sure no long distance will be charged with DSL, and is it possible to hook up my DSL modem and such on another number when DSL seems to be based on my home phone..

errror 999,?

This error is created by Yahoo when you have visited a web page too many times and they think you are spamming. To clear this error, reset your internet connection, if on dialup, this means hang up and call again, if you are on dsl, just reset your dsl modem.
