OT OT OT For those of you getting a little sick of this sector, CNBC reports that Maytag is hitting an all-time high today. I don't know the ticker symbol offhand. NEWS FLASH: AT&T to acquire Teleport Communications, possibly below current share price.

The modem handles four static IP addresseses at 10 mbs. That is 40 mbs throughput. I use 10 base T ethernet which connects to the modem. Wow. But perhaps you should get a 100 Base T NIC to connect to the modem? - same ballpark price. What UART do you have in your PC? 16750 may be needed instead of 16550.

<I have a four bridge cable modem at my residence office. Installation took 15 minutes. The modem handles four static IP addresseses at 10 mbs. That is 40 mbs throughput. I use 10 base T ethernet which connects to the modem. The hook up required plugging an RJ 45 jack into the modem, plugging the modem into a wall power socket and screwing on a 75 ohm coax cable from the cable feed to my house. That is as easy as it gets> Paul, Are you sure that you actually get a full 40mbs throughput? Also it sees to me that you will be sharing the local cable loop with your neighborhood since your cable company doesn't typically provide a dedicated coax to each building. Once others users jump on your throughput will be impaired. Cheers, Steve
