Question on a Westell 6100 dsl modem.

[Megashrap]

It has 2 slots on the back for either Ethernet or USB and I can use either or.  My question is is either one better to use?

No idea. Depending on the model, have you tried reading/skimming the manual?

Choose correct model at bottom left

Once you choose the correct one check out the manual (it is big!). I would've, but the file is big.

Could have some tips.

All is well, called Bellsouth dsl tech support and the suggested to use the Ethernet connection rather than the USB. But you can use either or. I'm assumming the USB uses the mboard resources, and the NIC card works alot better and smoother. Anyway, got the DSL extreme, did a test and i'm getting around 7 mbps down/512 up  ;D

If its possible use the Ethernet.

USB network adapters give me the shivers..

ethernet outperforms usb by far..

Ethernet doesnt require drivers like USB modems do.
