Hey, I'm moving into a new house this summer and want to set up a LAN with an ADSL line as the gateway. The ISP recommends the Efficient Networks Speedstream 5260. The modem will be hooked up to a Linksys BEFSR41 router (damn firmware). Has anyone had any experience with this modem or really good experiences with others? Thanks...

A simple home setup would be two phoneline netwrok adapters, one internal DSL modem, I say DSL because I have the 4060 and it is a nightmare, sometimes never gets recognized by the OS.

I've had the 5250 for over a year now. Works fine, no problems. The 5260 I hear is fine too.

I'd definitely choose an external over internal though.
