What kind of equipment is included in the installation price?

The $69 installation charge covers the work US West does to convert your line to use DSL. That part takes place entirely at the US West Central Office that serves you. No one needs to come to your home.

At this time there are a couple different hardware options available (each with a different fee):

  1. Cicso 605 internal PCI card - $45
  2. Cisco 675 external "modem" and a 3Com ethernet network card - $95
For the details on the features and limitations on each, you will want to check out "What is this about new hardware options?" at the bottom of this FAQ.

At this time you cannot purchase a third party DSL modem and must get the Cisco modem from US West.
