I am also in a very remote setting, with no hope of either high speed telephone net access nor cable modem, so IF I get hight speed connection I'll have to do the same thing you are contemplating. Does ANY satellite net connection support Linux? That is as been my first criterion. I am unaware of any that do. I have been told that Windows has router software built-in but I have not been able to get anything runnind to share my 56K connection. Please keep us advised of your successes (which all of us wish you to have). --David On Fri, 15 Mar 2002, dave mallery wrote: > Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2002 10:04:36 -0700 (MST) > From: dave mallery <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: Debian UserList <debian-user@lists.debian.org> > Subject: directPC vs Starband (slightly off topic) > Resent-Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2002 13:59:40 -0500 > Resent-From: debian-user@lists.debian.org > > hi > > i will be forced to go to one of the satellite providers shortly. > > if you are using either or the above (or some other service) > i would greatly appreciate some feedback. i am in a totally remote > location. is there a problem with directpc's usb ethernet connection? > > thanks much > > dave > > -- > Dave Mallery, K5EN (2.2r5 potato) > PO Box 520 > Ramah, NM 87321 > > no gates .~. > no windows... /V\ > /( )\ > running Debian GNU/Linux ^^-^^ (Linux is a trademark of Linus Torvalds) > free at last! > > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
