Alcatel SpeedTouch 330 ADSL modem converting to ethernet?
 

Hello, does anyone know if the Alcatel SpeedTouch 330 ADSL modem that you get with Pipex etc, will work OK if I plug it into a USB to ethernet adapter?
(like the one that NTL supply with broadband).

I have a Linksys BSFR41 ethernet router that I do not want to replace & this modem is supplied with an ADSL package.

I can make the nessasary adapter to enable both identical plugs to be wired 1:1 & if needed a power supply.
(I take it that it will need an external PSU then).

right dont quote me about this but i do belive that u can get the 330 to work with ethernet, rumour in the office is that you can get it with both connections, but like i say dont quote me, but i will investigate later at work for you :)

Thankyou,
Contacting Pipex, they said it was USB only, however I'm forever hopeful & if its been designed as a USB/ethernet modem yet only the USB components fitted & dont mind the hassle of converting it (providing I can find the info) if it saves me buying a new one.
