  1. Useful purpose for your old modems perhaps? on What To Do With Old DSL Modems? · · Score: 1

    I'm an engineer for Lucent Technologies, and I work with our DSL gear (COE: Stinger/TNT, CPE: PipeLine/CellPipe).

    I don't know about other vendors' equipment (especially interoperability), but most of our mid/high end CPE equipment (ie not the USB modems) has the ability in software to toggle between "cpe" and "coe" modes (think DCE and DTE).

    Perhaps a use for old DSL equipment could be to do long range runs, that normal ethernet couldn't handle (tall buildings, distant campus buildings...) it's the best i can think of.

    Why not use a ThinkPad 500 series (or equivalent)?
