They recommend the Sipura modem. Do you also need the Netgear router if you're going to access the net and use the phone service at the same time?
[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: See the answer given to Elaine elsewhere in this issue. It will make the whole simpler and much less complex to have some sort of router (Netgear is fine, but so is Linksys) if you want to use the computer and VOIP at the same time. But you may want to consider a VOIP service like Vonage, for instance, which uses a telephone adapter which has a router built in, so you get by with one nice, neat little connection. For any interested parties, I still have Vonage e-coupons which you redeem for one month of free Vonage service. You use the link in the email I send you; this walks you through the sign up process to start using Vonage. You use _your credit card_ to pay for the installation costs, and the number assignment, and the first month of service. Then, the e-coupon kicks in and you get the *second month* of whatever service plan you purchased for free. Write snipped-for-privacy@massis.lcs.mit.edu to request your e-coupon. PAT]- posted
