I have no choice but to connect by DUN That's even more discouraging for countries like mine, that follow your footsteps. :( The prospect for broadband seems ever so far... But I'm surprised that Thailand is still resorting to DUN. Why hasn't broadband diffused into BKK from Singapore and Malaysia? -- be well, Sudip Pokhrel | /"\ PM: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign PGP Key ID: 0xD93F5185 | X Against HTML E-mail ! http://pgpkeys.mit.edu | / \ ___________________________________________________________________ The Romans didn't find algebra very challenging, because X was always 10 ___________________ TB! v1.61 on XP Pro| P4-1.6Ghz 256MB RAM| ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
