I would have to say you will need a sbc modem... but you can try your old one to see.....
I have verizon and I know there different lines of modems are NOT compatable on the same signal.... each type requires its own signal

Your modem's MAC address is most likely part of your account with your dsl carrier. If you're looking to sign up for a new dsl account, you should check with them as to the compatibility. Some of the new dsl systems use "two wire" configurations that may use different hardware.
