Apparently, it depends on your device. I had naively assumed that just about any device could be configured to do that as well. Seemingly not. 8) With the device I have now, mine looks like this DSL -- firewall/NAT -- switch -- wired ethernet boxes | WAP -- wireless devices (hope the ASCII "art" comes through ok) Where the WAP is doing NAT'ing and the wireless devices are on their own subnet. I guess the lesson is to research before purchasing. 8) -- "Things are fine, the upcoming semester approaches like a brick wall and we're in a 1962 Corvair with no brakes." - Paul Sand Cole Tuininga Lead Developer Code Energy, Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key ID: 0x43E5755D _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
