If you can't modem…

My adsl modem burned out this week so I have been without internet. I am not sure if it fried, or was steamed. In my terminology, "fried" implies an internal fault whereas "steamed" connotes an environmental, heat and humidity-induced failure. Anyway, the new one provided by my isp (so-net) is, oddly, an NEC. It stands upright for easy toppling by earthquakes and space conservation. There it is next to my AirMac base station. Apparently the term "Airport" was already copyrighted in Japan.
