Summary: A good modem. PLEASE NOTE: Cables included
Review: I agree with the Editorial review of this product. The documentation that comes with it is awful. However, it was relatively easy to setup and works like a charm. I bought it for my linux system and the thing can hold a connection forever (staying connected for an extended period was a problem I had with the internal modem that came with my system). This is apparently one of the big pluses for external vs. internal modems: higher reliability. They can also supposedly be faster. PLEASE NOTE: this item comes with all the cables you need to get it up and running. This was annoying to me, as no cables appear in the photo of the item nor could I find any info on the detail page stating this. So I made the mistake of buying an extra cable when it wasn't needed.

Summary: WOW! This is the PERFECT modem
Review: I had this modem out of the box and set up within 3 minutes. This modem was a replacement for my old modem. This modem connects faster than most modems that I have seen. This modem is fully v.90 and can be flashed for future updates. This modem has kept a connection for close to 2 weeks, stopped only then by a power failure. This modem has audio jacks on the sides for full phone\video phone function. This is the best Creative\Digicom modem that I have owned (I have owned 3). This modem is easy enough to install that even first time users could install it (with a little assistance from the manual). The manual is in plain english and almost anyone can understand it. This is a great product.

Summary: The Fast Friendly Multiple Operating System Modem
Review: Need a Modem replacement for you Windows Only modem?

The DE5620 supports Linux and BEoS at full speed allowing for fast surfing with two of the best operating systems now available.

Installation was simple. Configurating Linux and Beos Dial up connections took about 2 minutes each and BAM I was on the net. Plug and Play that really works......

The price is basically a steal of a deal? I'd pay any day to connect at 115K!

Modem Blaster's are Faster! Life is Good!
