Esteban, What is a Shotgun modem? Shotgun is the brand name of a modem made by the Diamond Co. that allows two 56k modems to connect to one ISP. Many ISP's are now supporting the Shotgun. I connect at approx. 46,000 thus the 92k connection rate. ISP's charge 29.95 per month for this service. The modem is $199 plus tax. It's not cable but is better than a 56k modem. I will lose the connection on one modem now and then, but not both at the same time. The nice part is you will never totally lose your connection, two clicks and the second modem reconnects. diamondmm.com Sygate is a NAT and easy to setup. sygate.com Check out the multi-monitors feature with Windows 98. That's the only way to go. Good Luck, Doug
