Coditel works very well. I use it since June 2003 with almost no
problems (only problem was the blocked port 25 several days ago). Speed
is very good (only slightly slower compared to german T-DSL I used for 2
years in Germany).

I only thing your OS needs to support is ethernet and DHCP! Therefore
Coditel is compatible with every network capable modern OS!
