He, as far as I can tell, just wants to know how to route it to his 8500. Anyhow 'might' is an optional not a definite. I can't speak for him but he seems happy with what he has, he just wants to use it on his Mac, that's all I told him how to do. James - do you have to run software to connect the satellite link or does it just use the Windows built in software? This is kinda critical if you are going to route it as it's not easy unless it uses Windows default stuff or the program that you use to connect it can route itself, but I doubt that. -- Mark Benson Vintage Macs List Nanny aka silicon_valley_pirate_uk (Yahoo!
