Keith I just spoke to Tony Muscat at PTL, he has one at home which he personally set up, and told me that you should call him on 21445566 Monday. They will certainly help you out. Mario

I suppose then you have a PPTP connection. I'm with Waldonet, and the one common mistake I make at home is that I input the username inccorect, what i mean is: sometimes I input the username as xxxx instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm not sure if you would need to do the same with Bellnet.

I have some clients using XP, media center and Mandrake. What I would like is to connect to the internet through the WRT54G and share the connection to my LAN. While at it I'd use it as a firewall as well.

We use it as a gateway and depending on were on the net we go it diverts the traffic. However if you give me some information, such as who is your ISP and the type of connection you have plus some network info, I'll get on to PTL and see if they can help us out. They are normally very helpful people. I know they have setup quite a few of these things.

How are you connecting to your ISP? Are you using PPTP or PPPoE?
