Intel Anypoint modem & Nildram broadband

[CharlieAlpha66]

At home I have Nildram ADSL broadband (which my employers pay for).

I can connect to the outside world either from my loft (or dining room - but am getting a bit fed up of unplugging/rewiring my Intel Anypoint 3240 modem when I switch rooms (depending which is warmest!).

If I buy another identical modem (plenty for sale on eBay), can I expect that it will work with the existing software on my laptop, or does the modem itself have some software/firmware that would also need to be fettled?

Thanks in advance to any techies who know such things.

One of those things, it should work but the cold, hard hammer to the kneecaps of experience says 5% finger crossing might be required, which is slightly over the general ambient level of finger crossing required with these things






wireless??
