Switching from iinet Explorer dialup to Big Pond Broadband ADSL
Telstra say plug and play using USB port, they supply free modem and self
installation kit
(I will probably have to install an additional Ethernet interface as
existing ethernet is networked on a hub to other devices). I am going to
keep the iinet dialup on second telephone line until broadband is working
smoothly.
I am using G4 OS8.6 and any advice appreciated
Many thanks,
Rick

Until you actually strike a problem it is hard to give any advice.

Generally, the WAMUG list is not a good place to get advice about Bigpond ADSL or cable because not many members are on Bigpond broadband. The best place is <http://whirlpool.net.au/> which is a site covering all broadband matters. The discussion forum is a good place to get advice about any Bigpond ADSL problems you might encounter.
