Hi all,
I'm looking into getting satellite internet, since all the dial-up ISP's are making it harder and harder for me to stay online the amount of time that I do (I'm disabled and being on the computer is all I have to keep myself occupied and from going insane with nothing to do).
I guess xDSL is not an option?
My mom will also be sharing the satellite hookup too, so we only have to pay for one modem etc.
My question is: What would be best to use so that all I have to do is run a cable from her computer and one from my computer to the modem. I mean, how should I set it up so that both of us can use the same, single satellite modem? What would be best, and most importantly, easiest?
Like Ken already said, a wireless router is all you need.
Also, will our opensuse 11.3 pick up this new connection readily? Or will I have to do a bunch of cli stuff and wondering what and how to get connected?
You would set up your Linux box(es) with wireless and DHCP, and that's pretty much it. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (14.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
