old faithful Terrayon

well in about 5 weeks time we're moving house, i've spoken to NTL (thrillin 25 min wait to a whiny english mare, i so do not miss that SE accent), who say that the digibox will be picked up but not the SACM because the costs are prohibitive.

Now i won't be able to take on any NTL services where i'm going but i'm curious to know that if i connect via the existing ethernet on the Terrayon, will it actually work?

Some of the alternate ISP's on BT's exchange give the option of ethernet so i'm wondering has anyone else had this experience?

cheers

ADSL is a different technology to Cable, so the Terayon modem will not work. The only thing it is good for is a paperweight i'm afraid!

What I can't understand is why, if they will pick up the Digi box they can't pick up th SACM at the same time

?!?!?

Why bother picking something up for no reason?

cheers Monkey, i kinda thought that was the reason but i wasn't sure.

As for what they would and wouldn't be picking up it was clearly stated that it was cost only
