--- Unfortunatly I do not have to option of a router to grab a DNS address and my ISP doesn't offer any static for dial up customers. I don't have the option of DSL or Cable here, so will I be able to surf with me latptop? Or should I just stick with the desktop and d/l pages for offline browsing to the laptop? Would it help if I updated the os? I have a 167mhz PPC upgrade card coming for the 540c, so I should be able install atleast 9.0 onto it....
