The problem with using a Internet sharing router is that every two-way satellite Internet provider I've ever heard of uses proprietary drivers for their modem. I doubt most routers can talk to such a modem.

That said, you don't need a router at all. Just turn on the Internet sharing feature of the computer hooked up to the satellite and then use wired or wireless networking to connect the rest of the computers in the house.

Thanks Ginger!

Some are POP, some are web...it's a [phonetic spelling here] mishagoss.

I've done the Outlook dealie, and even routed one domain under my control. The other two don't seem to be working though. More research required.

The USB is the only way the Modem will talk to anything, otherwise I'd use the router I have from my apartment.

Rob's may be the best solution. I'll play with it when I get there.

Thanks.

If you are expecting to share by wire, make sure you bring an extra ethernet card, in case their computer doesn't have one.

signed,

t been there.

Are you digitally obese?

Yes, I am.

And unrepentantly so.

What's the what in PDA technology these days? Is convergence the theme of the market? Do you need a phone or a camera to be up to date?

ND's latest PDA is also a phone and a camera.

Or, his latest phone is also a camera and a PDA.

Or.... Well, you get the idea.

My phone is already a camera. I don't need my PDA to be either, but the one I have is getting flakey.

Play with ND's new one for a while and you might change your mind. It's pretty darn cool.

No, I've played with them before. And I have a Blackberry. Unless you can make my phone as small as my Ericsson T616, the camera anywhere near as good as my Kodak camera, plus rolling in a large screen with very few moving parts, I'm good.

Maybe next year.
