SBC Offered Wi-Fi/DSL Router before
Qwest
04/09/2004 06:34 PM

Qwest's claim of being first telco to offer DSL/Wi-Fi gateway bundle contradicted by SBC's offering: Alert reader Chester Cade, an SBC customer, contacted us to provide details about SBC Yahoo!'s DSL offering for residential customers noting that the offer of a $149 or $179 Wi-Fi/DSL router/modem bundle (with $99 off for service commitment) has been available for months. Qwest's press release claims bragging rights: Qwest is the first major telecommunications company to offer customers a wireless-ready modem, and the company also has decided to make this the standard modem for all of its new DSL customers. The latter part may be true, but it would appear SBC beat them (quietly) to the punch. The device that SBC is offering appears to be the HomePortal 1000HW, which is a DSL router with Ethernet, Wi-Fi, USB, and HomePNA connections built-in....

No surprise here, but Qwest, who is in the process of being spurn ed repeatedly in trying to buy MCI, has now filed an official protest against SBC's acquisition of AT&T. Of course, half the reason Qwest wants to buy AT&T is because SBC buying AT&T will leave Qwest even further behind (and it's already pretty far back there).

Qwest's DSL modems are available as retail items at Best Buy including a DSL plus Wi-Fi option: DSL carriers are obviously finding it better to compete with cable by offering essentially free sharing of a single connection as an official option. The retail packaging of a Qwest DSL modem is supposed to reduce Qwest's cost even further in a DSL installation. Most DSL is now self-installed, removing the expensive cost of a truck roll....

Qwest Offers Wi-Fi in DSL Modem


Qwest Offers Wi-Fi in DSL Modem 04/09/2004 03:57 PM
Qwest is selling DSL customers a $60 (or rented for $3/month) gateway with Wi-Fi built-in: Actiontec is a big winner here, with Qwest selling their DSL/Wi-Fi combo. This may be the first U.S. telecom or cable firm to offer Wi-Fi so aggressively as an integrated product, but it won't be the last. It will soon be de rigeur to offer Wi-Fi as an option or a baseline feature in gateways and broadband modems. The products are available; the ISPs just need to hop on the right bandwagon. The price is notable, because past offerings of Wi-Fi equipment to telco customers has been far above market prices. This price tag of $60 seems perfectly reasonable given its integration. It's not clear from the article whether technical support for Wi-Fi is included in the DSL subscription....
