Hi All, I am still on dialup here in the UK, but have been wondering whether to dip my toes into broadband. There are a couple of reasonably attractively priced deals involving kit like the Netgear DG814 broadband router and 4 port switch - since I had intended to to have a small network anyway, this might form a useful alternative to attaching a usb modem to the SuSE machine and then having to buy a separate hub. However, my ignorance is complete - anyone got any experience with such devices under SuSE, and / or other *nix, ideally experience that involves attaching to the BTOpenworld broadband, the only kind I actually have on offer where I live. Don't worry about patronising me, I really know zip about this category of equipment. Thanks for any input Best Fergus -- Fergus Wilde Chetham's Library Long Millgate Manchester M3 1SB UK Tel: +44 161 834 7961 Fax: +44 161 839 5797
