I have to say my brother and I just received 2 new Ariadne II cards
from Compuquick today. Now I have 2 in my A3000 MiamiDX gateway to a
cablemodem and they work great.
I don't know if Compuquick has any more in stock. My brother and his
friend have been waiting months for 3 X-surfs. Is anyone else having
trouble getting them?
