DSL ModemsWhen you order DSL Service, you usually get a modem in a box a few weeks later. The Internet Service Provider or ISP will also notify you that the service has been activated on their end. All you have to do is hook up your modem and you'll be surfing the net in high speed wonderland.
If it were just that easy!You have to know how to setup basic networking functions or you can spend a few hours reading the instructions.
You do have the option of calling a networking company. At $150.00 an hour, they will come and set it up for you. Now you have the option of calling GeekOnWheels.
