Speedtouch 330

" The service is a self-install offering, so no engineer visits are
required. Demon Home broadband comes with an optional Alcatel
SpeedTouch ST330 modem and two microfilters. The modem requires a USB
interface and is compatible with Windows 98, 98SE, 2000, ME and XP, as
well as Mac OS 8/9 and OS X."

from the product "tech spec" pages at demon.net

it could only be an improvement. Demon offers a fairly basic service
with few bells and whistles. Don't expect fancy customer portals etc.

not included on the £19.99 account. It is on the £24.99 HomeOffice
ones. Works for me but I'm not a large scale downloader of usenet
"binaries".

I'd actually consider that an advantage, not wasting effort on a portal.

I probably agree, but not everyone would. Some appear to like
colourful web sites with chatty helpful style and useful user tools.

They've been hit by knowledgable flak on the way their web-site seems to
be written _only_ for Internet Explorer, and doesn't seem to have had
even basic HTML checking -- silly mistakes like "serife" for "serif" in
font names.

I'd say you have to know what you are doing; they're a long way from
being the best at customer communications. Which has little to do with
whether or not they have a fancy portal.

But I'm switching from Demon dial-up to broadband from elsewhere, my
choice partly guided by my brother's experience. And Demon are at the
expensive end of the range. End of an era, but they don't feel special
any more.

I can be fairly scathing about websites and have been known to revise
purchasing decisions on encountering a flash intro page with a "skip"
option.
