    Telstra Broadband has a fixed IP address.

    You have to set the IP address on your PC manually to be the same as the router.

    So no other computers can use the internet.

    A router enables you to use more than one PC with the same connection.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    If you're asking why all the PCs - because I'm a bit of a sad git, without a life, the bike is unregistered/unwarranted, I'm waiting on the new bike to arrive, and I've nothing much better to do.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    How about http://www.64studio.com
    Works better than XP, is free, specialised for digital content creation (aka music, movies and audio) and comes in 64 bit and 32 bit versions. I have it running perfectly on a dual Opteron, and on a 12 year old dual Pentium Pro.

    Cripes man, computers are like bikes; you can never have too many. I was just wondering why you don't just bung them all on a 25 dollar unmanaged switch and use CUPs and SAMBA to get them all talking to one another.

    I like the security one. It is a lot like Windows really is. The constant messages about pointless stuff (YOU JUST PLUGGED SOMETHING IN!! OK IT'S A USB DEVICE!! OKAY IT IS A USB DISK!! OKAY IT'S READY FOR USE!! OKAY YOU NEED TO INSTALL DRIVERS!! OKAY YOU NEED TO REBOOT!!)

    Like, shut up and die..

    They are on a switch . and the SME server is also the router/firewall interface to the cable modem. As Riffer sez, the cable modem gets you 1 static IP. SME spreads it around

    OMG..no way. Apple have invented everything since the light bulb. That Torvalis chap and his chums must have copied some experimental Darwin code to create Linux. As for Steve Jobs, it was all a big cover up. Apple never really sacked him and Next was merely the R&D arm of the company.

    Are you being a troll or misguided? http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200010/darwin.html

    Linux does not equal Unix.

    See http://www.levenez.com/unix/history.html .
