While I agree with you on the convenience of high-speed networking, it is not a question of switching to high-speed services. The irony of the situation is that depending on location, wireless is not a reliable solution presently. The mandatory pre-configuration at every new location is cumbersome and fraught with potential glitches (see my posts circa mid-August). If you do not need to be mobile then It seems that ethernet cable is the only reliable, viable alternative 8-) ....but the big desktop is wired this way. > Good Luck.... Derick. My post is merely an exploration of networking issues. E P.S. ALSA works on my PB. :-) _______________________________________________ yellowdog-newbie mailing list [email protected] http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-newbie
