Topic: Sdsl?

The content of this topic has been archived on 27 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

This may be a n00b question but I am a n00b so here goes:

I'm not fully up to speed with the difference between how ADSL and SDSL work (I understand the latter has matching ul/dl speeds tongue)
If I were to buy a Linksys WRT54G router and flash it with OpenWrt would I be able to use it to connect to my SDSL line or do I need specifically an SDSL modem?
Are ADSL modems different to SDSL?

I've found a bit more info out. Apparently SDSL modems are different but I don't know how they differ or if the software can cope with this difference and still operate an SDSL connection?

The discussion might have continued from here.
