MN-700 and Westell 2100 DSL Modem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

I believe the Westell is a modem/router, depending on the model, so to use
the MN-700 you may need to put it in access mode as described in the User's
Guide. I would first check to see which version of the Westell you've got,
and what it is doing.
