I am afraid this is just not the case, as I am involved in tech support
for an
ISP, the root of most "I can't connect.." problems is: winmodems.
I don't see how the architecture of the modem can affect an "I can't
connect..." problem, but since you work with modems on a daily (if not
hourly) basis, I defer to your experience.
