Hi Stan :) I'm sure a friend would donate one, if he didn't ditch his old routers. Once he would donate one, but I wished not to have devices that aren't really needed. I'm surrounded by audio/MIDI gear, not much space since I had to move my equipment from a large house with an audio studio, to a small rented flat with a small room for music. Anyway, I'll ask him, if he still has got a router he could donate, but this won't help me today. A new install by the netinst CD with modules=ppp-udbe resulted in "command not found" when I tried to launch pppoeconf. Can I just use CD1 or DVD1 for a "regular" install? Cheers!
