QWEST MSN ON LAN

[kbw]

I am thinking of getting MNS DSL but from what I have seen you can not set it up to connect to your hub. Has any one got this service and if so will it work on a LAN, I also have a CISCO 675 witch will work on a LAN can I just set up my acount on it or do I have to use thier modem?

what is mns dsl?

You should be fine. The Cisco 675 will connect to the DSL line. Connect the LAN port on the Cisco to a hub or switch, and plug your computers into the switch.

Normally, you would need a separate router, but the Cisco 675 is a combo DSL modem *and* router.

Doing a search on Google, I came across this web page on Qwest's web site that specifically addresses some questions about using the Cisco 675 with their service. I'd say that's a good sign that it'll work!

And here is another page that has information on using a Cisco 675 with Qwest.

Do a search on Google on "qwest cisco 675" and you'll come up with all sorts of useful information.

MSN's quality service, but on DSL.

Its kinda scary...

[jtarchit]

you could call msn or whoever your dsl provider is and ask them if you can use the 675.

You dont need to ask tho, just plug a cisco 675 or 678 into your hub, it works real nice actually....
