news:1061403096.349486@sj-nntpcache-3... Huh? MS attempted to build a NT-based router several years ago and gave up. There is no such animal. Of course there is. Windows comes with Internet Connection Sharing, which is basically a software NAT router. Works fine. OTOH a Linksys router will cost $100-200 at your friendly local Fry's (or whatever) and will do everything required. Not with the satellite hookups, since they require a specific USB connection and driver. I think it's silly the satellite data services don't just use Ethernet, but they don't. You can't use a regular hardware router with them. Pete |
