Why can't Verizon see my 82557 NIC?
I can't install due to this.


My PC is an IBM 233MHz.

I have a DLink DSL 100D/CZ. I don't want to use the wireless
Verizon sent me because I've had friends lift free DSL off their neighbors.


I have another, tolerable but quaint problem:
some times it sees my PC as 232 MHz and says I don't qualify.

You posted this already ! Why open a new thread when you didn't respond to the
last reply !
I'll just give you a simple response now...

Don't use *any* provided Verizon software. Get a Cable/DSL Router such as the
Linksys
BEFSR41 and via the WAN port connect it to the Verizon supplied Modem. Then
have the PC
connect to a LAN port on the Router. Call Verizon on the phone and have them
create an
account over the phone. If the account uses PPPoE then apply the account to the
PPPoE setup
on the Router and you'll access the internet no matter what speed your PC is or
what NIC you
are using on the PC (assuming it works).

No Verizon software is needed and no Verizon supplied software should be used.
