Ready to (finally) upgrade to high-speed broadband Internet access? Go ADSL! The Actiontec USB Ethernet DSL Modem with Routing Capabilities has a full rate ADSL modem that's upgradeable to faster ADSL 2/2+protocol. It's also a router, capable of networking up to two computers via wired ports. The Modem's engine is ready for upgrade to ADSL2, the new DSL standard that enhances modem performance by tripling the available bandwidth (from 8 Mbps to 24 Mbps). The DSL Modem includes TI's TNETD7300 Broadband Communication Processor and Peripherals. The TNETD7300 is the industry's most densely integrated system-on-a-chip ever offered to the ADSL CPE market by Texas Instruments. The TNETD7300 is considered an ADSL bridge/router solution, integrating a broadband communications processor and peripherals, ADSL physical layer, ADSL line driver, USB physical layer, and Ethernet physical layer.
