Most probably yes. It depends on the stock that they have.

In my opinion, they give out 600E maybe because that modem is ADSL2 ready.

If I'm not wrong, TMNet is testing ADSL2. When will it be available is still unknown. Go here to check out what are ADSL2 speeds like. But too bad the ISP in this link has quota. This post has been edited by hardyboyz888: Dec 17 2005, 11:24 AM

But in Malaysia, we are lucky that TMNet didn't give the users a quota.

In other countries, there are different packages with different quota. Normally quota is around 20GB. So let's say you downloaded 20GB for a month, starting from 20.1GB your speed will be reduced to 56k speed if I'm not mistaken.

Most countries got quota. Some don't. If it doesn't have, then it's great.

You got furious until you double posted. Chill. Why you get so angry when you are getting a ZTE for replacement ? It's free right ? Just appreciate it. There's nothing else you could do. The contractor might be out of stock for Aztech modems.

the duble post was an accident.
anyway does the brand of the modem affect the quality of the connection? i think aztech would make a better modem.

The duration between 1st and the 2nd one was 2 minutes. Accident ? I don't know. IMO, I don't think the brand of a modem will affect the quality of the connection. Just live with the ZTE. It may serve you well.

ZTE is good enough for me. been using it for 2 months...( new subscriber maa..  ) and never have to reboot. @jing_kohkoh the installer told me tm will provide only the cheapest modem. what i did was buy another router+AP. a switch is also cheap now. about RM70.

It doesn't have additional LAN ports. But if you get Aztech DSL600E, it has router function and all you have to do is get a switch.
