Thanx... > > Hi Abhay, If your PC has a working ethernet card-- which is recognized by ubuntu-- then use a ethernet patch cable to connect between your PC's ethernet-out and the Beetel modem's ethernet port. In that case; it will definitely work-- since it would be reduced to the task of making a TCP/IP link between two ethernet endpoints-- and using the beetel modem as a gateway. Even I have done the same. Best Wishes and Regards, Nalin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Do you have another question?
