Xayd,
The tech had 5 kits in his truck but none were the 5660.
What I got is a Altel Speed Touch Modem, mod#3ec18804gcaa01,
and a Kingston NIC model #kne40t. The box describes it as a Etherx PCI ethernet adaptor, 10 base-t.
My pc would not recognize this NIC or any others he had. He was willing to look at Raspppoe, but I had to Format and reinstall everything. Took to much time and he had another appointment.
I will tell you that I went to MS update site and I d/l'd MS 5.5 in 3min 45sec.
The tech gave me his work and home number plus his email address if I had any trouble.
I was treated extremely well.
Carl

BTW, nothing is USB. He didn't like USB either.
