Earthlink

This reviewer switched from ATT DSL service to Earthlink DSL service in August 2019. After only 1 year Earthlink notified reviewer that it was discontinuing that DSL service in reviewer's geographical area (zip code *******). That left reviewer with a useless purchased SMART/RG modem/router and the need to purchase "NEW ADSL2+ ROUTER AT&T Netgear 7550 WIRELESS GATEWAY WIFI Router B90-*******-15", One has to get exactly this modem, and its Device Access code has to be known. It not the default on Netgear label, its altered value must be provided. Loss of this code makes this Netgear device useless.
