Bought on eBay and found out once it got here that it can only be used with VDSL,NOT ADSL. So since it makes me sick to look at it...

yeah I was clueless too or I would not have bought it

but it does exist somewhere

From wikipedia

VDSL or VHDSL (Very High Bitrate DSL)[1] is a DSL technology providing faster data transmission over a single flat untwisted or twisted pair of copper wires. These fast speeds mean that VDSL is capable of supporting high bandwidth applications such as HDTV, as well as telephone services (Voice over IP) and general Internet access, over a single connection. VDSL is deployed over existing wiring used for POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) and lower-speed DSL connections. This standard was approved by ITU in November 2001.

Second-generation VDSL2 systems (ITU-T G.993.2 Approved in February 2006) utilize bandwidth of up to 30 MHz to provide data rates exceeding 100 Mbit/s simultaneously in both the upstream and downstream directions. The maximum available bit rate is achieved at a range of about 300 meters; performance degrades as the loop attenuation increases.

Yes, just looked it up myself...given the specs of the circuit, good luck finding one who has that type of service running...seriously...

Lesson learned on this end.

But a bargain if someone else can use it. Really has pretty amazing capabilities.
