I have a question for VanBurean I guess, I have a westell 2200 moden from verizon, they sent me a Versalink 327W router/modem. Can my westell 200 provide the 3.0 service for me or do I have to install the new Versalink to get the faster bandwidth? Thanks ahead of time....Daysbtween

Misery loves company .........I called verizon yesterday to inquire about moving up to 3.0 MPS service. I had put a order in a month ago and when asked they said the work order had been executed and I did have faster service. I called again later in the day and when i asked why I cant see the speed increase they sent me to billing?????? I come to find out that with another year commitment they would set me up with the faster service and send me the new dsl router/modem asap. So im thinkin if your contract isnt close to being up they dont want to upgrade you for free. Just my two cents....now that this has happened im much, much faster.... 2005-02-18 07:42:56 EST: 2529 / 689 Your download speed : 2590199 bps, or 2529 kbps. A 316.1 KB/sec transfer rate.
