oo0oscar0oo Posted July 7, 2005 Author CID Share Posted July 7, 2005 i've heard in other forums that the D-Link modem disconnects alot while download and heats up all the time, is that true? thats the only curiosity i had about it and if thats not a problem ill probably go with it. gettting more votes for that one than the moto. thank you everyone. keep on posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
