 Works fine with attbi.com, 2002-02-21
Works fine. plug & play. both ethernet and usb.
works perfect with SMC barricade
I'm impressed how I didn't have to mess with a single thing:
it all worked. Period.
(p.s. to the XP problem: if you're using the ethernet, it could NOT possibly interfere with XP [MS trash])

Literally plug it in, call your provider and reboot..., 2002-02-20
I finally took the step and bought this Linksys modem (I've always liked Linksys). I LITERALLY unplugged my rented modem, plugged this one in and called COX to update the MAC address in their system. Took a whole 5 minutes! Since I didn't need to connect via the USB I didn't have to install anything. COX said it could take up to an hour to begin working, but it was up in a few minutes. Very nice! I highly recommend this to anyone using a cable connection who thinks they will be using it for more than 10 months.

 WARNING -- Major issues with BEFCMU 10 and Windows XP, 2002-02-18
After purchasing this modem I started to have an annoying problem where my PC would spotaneously restart in the middle of working on the internet. I contacted Linksys technical support, and they refused to admit that the problem traced to their product. After spending many hours with the Microsoft technical support help desk, we definitively isolated that problem to BEFCMU10.sys -- the software that came with this modem. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS MODEM IF YOU PLAN TO RUN WINDOWS XP OR UPGRADE TO IT AT A LATER DATE.
' Cable LED ' confused the Cable Guy, 2002-02-18
After some confusion on the 'Cable LED', the product is working great. The Cable Guy, misinterpreted the meaning of the Cable LED on the front of the Modem. On the modems they try to get you to buy, the Cable LED is an indication that the Modem has sync'ed up to the cable connection. On the Linksys, the Cable LED is more of an Tx/Rx Activity Indicator -- the Status LED indicates Cable Connectivety. After calling in for help six times, the Cable Guy tried to get me to toss the Linksys Modem and buy their Modem. I resorted to opening the manual and convinced him that the Modem was fine and working. He agreed. I would rate the Modem a 5, but Linksys should probably rethink the 'Status' and 'Cable' LEDs since these didn't seem to be the standard -- according to the Cable Guy.
