For @home, they give you a custom browser (WHOOP-DE-DOO!!) and a cute lil' turnkey visual basic or .bat file to configure your TCP for you. If you know what you are doing you can certainly do without the above, as you describe below.

What does that mean exactly... What "service" to they provide? I have Verizon DSL and, they give me an IP address and that's it. No logging in, no "Start" pages, etc. There's nothing computer specific there at all. In fact I have a router connected to the DSL, so there's not even a "platform" connected at all - just a router box. It doesn't matter that I have a Mac/PC/Linux or whatever behind that router. How do they even know what type of machine you have? How could it even matter? That has always confused me with Excite@home, etc. - what exactly to they DO? -Steve -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
