I had knew that would fix the problem as I have used that to fix other peoples network problems I the past. However they were customers, grin, who could afford the outlay. I am in a position whereby daughter is finishing Uni in a couple of months, graduating, as a teacher. She has more than a 50/50 chance of going having to leave home again and go bush. As most students here have to repay the Govt the cost of Uni, thyey, the Govt, can send them anywhere within Qld. This means up to 3000 km away to teach. This does not warrant the purchase of a router, hence I need a cheap work around. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'SKIPPY' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061, Australia:: PH:61733002161 Practising Geriatric, Retired Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
