Buying a modem?

Question

My parents keep taking away my DSL modem, so i just decided to buy myself one. Would any kind of DSL modem work if I start using it?

BTW, i use this fat styled modem that SBC gave me 2-3 years ago. Recently I went to my friends house and he has this tiny box that looks like mine (also by SBC), does that slim version of my modem make the internet go faster or something?

(if any modem would work, can someone give me suggestions on what i cna get?

Size does not matter.

Ask your DSL provider what MODEMS they support.

Best Buy sell an AT&T modem that work on their stuff. AT&T and SBC are the same now. I had to get one for my Mother-in-law. Sorry but I don't remember what I paid for it. It seems like $79.95.
