Re: [NTLK] Earthlink DSL & Newton

I'm using a Linksys cable/DSL router to share my connection. I'm routing to
Win98, WinME, and PowerMac OS9 - got rid of Win3.11 and Win95
a-long-time-ago. I've learned some tricks connecting through this router:
browsin' da web, TTempelmann's DIL tester (works great), NewtFTP (a bit slow
compared to DIL, but VERY functional on web); and hope to try these other
cool functions: transfer packages and BU to the Mac, serve webpages, and
maybe I'll try VNC to see if it's applicable to my needs. I've probably
missed a few others, including wireless - I'm not sure that those who are
tweaking the wireless connection have a fully functional connection yet...if
so, that would be the way to go!! Cables can be so limiting...the Newton is
meant to be portable afterall!!

Hey Gang,

Is anyone using Earthlink DSL on a windows machine and sharing that
connection with their newton.

I'm looking to see if this is possible and I'm looking for any
advice/guidance on this matter, or for that matter, if it's possible.

Gracias,

Marty
