Off-Topics (Cable-modem)

I'm a user since a few months of the cable-modem CyberSurfer from Motorola. It's a two-way device so i really don't need a second phone line to be connected on the net.

Excellent response time and average download at around 50-70 Kbytes per seconds (10 meg in 3 minutes). Always connected to the net but my IP address is changing every 6 hours so i can't implement a server...(sniff).

It cost me 34.95 per month (Yes it's in canadian dollars so it's a real bargain)

Hope that's help you

Claude

>> BTW - Just heard that my cable company (Charter Communications) got bought up by Paul Allen. I bet MSNBC will be on the air very soon here. <<

Hehehe...good luck! I live not more than 5 minutes away from Mr. Gates and I can't even get MSNBC or a friggin cable modem! Well, at least it's not raining here in Seattle!
