If its an external ethernet connected modem it doesnt have to be
'compliant' with any os.

They are probably just referring to any bundled software that came with
it. - you wont need any of it.

Just access the modem setup menu from its IP address ( usually
192.168.0.0 or similar ) there will be a section in the setup manual
concerned with 'manual setup' for those who dont want to use the
windows setup wizard.

Hi

I'm in the process of changing ISPs and they've sent me a new modem
D-Link DSL-526B. It says it's not Linux or mac compliant, and just
wondering if anyone knows anything about this modem. I'll google of
course too. I can always continue using my "old" modem if this doesn't
work of course, although I can't see why it shouldn't.

Thanks
