Ok, I like the list of partners on the web page, to take it a step further, consider what each company does and its relationship is with EFNT. Hardware suppliers to telco's (supply DSLAMs): Nortel Siemens Lucent Ericsson Alcatel ADC Telecommunications Advanced Fibre Communications DSC Communications Diamon Lane Communications (part of Nokia) Newbridge Nokia LEC's (the ones who actually deploy DSL lines): Covad Other (specialized in Voice over DSL generally): Copper Com Jetstream nCube Redback I also put together some info on DSL providers (local exchange carriers) and their DSL hardware. I tried to sort by whether they currently use or can use EFNT products or if their DSLAM's won't work with EFNT. This list comes from checking web sites and other sources so some of it may be old or inaccurate: LEC's using hardware than can support EFNT modems: Covad - Diamond Lane DSLAM, EFNT Modems Quest: allied with Covad (Diamond Lane Speedlink DSLAM) PacBell: Alcatel DSLAM, Alcatel Modems Ameritec: Alcatel DSLAM, Alcatel Modems Bell Atlantic: DSC Litespan DSLAM, Westell ADSL Modems LEC's using hardware doesn't appear to support EFNT modems: Northpoint: Copper Mountain DSLAMs, Netopia, 3Com, Copper Mountain for CPE Rhythms Netconnections: Copper Mountain DSLAM Quest: allied with Rhythms (Copper Mountain) MCI/Worldcom: Copper Mountain DSLAM ICG communications: Copper Mountain DSLAM At present, it appears that only Covad is deploying EFNT modems. I'm sure there's more out there that I've missed. Does anyone have additional info? John
