The site makes it sound like you must have a PC running Windoze to connect and then you can connect a Mac or Unix machine via a network. Anyone checked into this or found a work around? (I know what I'll hear from the local distributor. "Macs aren't supported!" That's the usual response when dealing with PC oriented companies. I had to show the cable guy how to hook Macs into the cable modem as he had no idea. I used my own crossover cable to show him that that was what was needed. He didn't want to try one as he "knew" that that wasn't the connection problem! I hooked it up while he was outside double checking the connections at the box.)
All of my Macs (I don't do PCs!) are networked via ethernet hubs and at present tie into my cable modem. The modem ties into a hub via an ethernet crossover cable and all of my Macs tie into networked hubs via ethernet patch cables to give each of them full internet and network access. I'd like to maintain the same simplicity rather that having to run a VPC "Server" and have all of my other Macs tied to it.
