Re: Don't like the fee? At $139 it isn't really problem solved. Of course I could get a used one cheaper off Amazon or Ebay but that is a pig in a poke. It may be able to be activated or it may not. Either way, it is an increase in price. That is the problem.
Edit. In addition, I checked the approved list and don't see any modems on there that support telephone service.

This could be a problem. The D3 modems on the approved list seem to support up to 4x4 bonded channels. Can a firmware upgrade address this? |

From what I understand, the D3 Motorolla models listed in the screenshot support 8x4 channel bonding. -- Please use all available doors...you have 33 to choose from. |
