Hi Folks I have made my trigger finally, and now can start to plan what kind of connection I want. I am wanting a 1MB connection if i can get it,
I have 1 primary PC, which dual boots, well she reboots into windows and i reboot into mandrake, does that count? :-) My 6 year old twins have a pc as well, but I dont think I want to hook that up to the net yet, maybe an option in the future, but for the purposes of your advice, I just want to consider the dual booting pc. People have advised to get a router, but I am not sure what the difference between a router and an adsl modem are? Do I need both? I have tried searching the web but all i come across are sales sites, and of course they are going to say they are great. I also heard data stream, is better than ip-stream, but again not sure why. Do I want a static Ip address? Sounds good, but on dialup I have never had one, so I dont know if one would benefit me Any advice and recommendations greatly appreciated. -- Phil Deane http://www.MiracleExpress.force9.co.uk _______________________________________________ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish
