I have no intention whatsoever of using USB for my broadband while there's a nice ethernet port on the side of my iMac. Besides, my trusty Belkin Bus Station is running out of spare ports! So, am I not looking hard enough for someone who will bundle an ethernet modem, or am I going to have to buy the modem I want and then find a service with no 'free' or rental modem bundled?
The pipex services offer something called " solo " that does not come with a modem. If you want an ethernet modem Dlink do A very nice little unit that would look good next to your mac...
