I need some advice, I've a Toshiba Satellite I use all over the place. I've a Viking 56K modem and a DE-660 ethercard stuck in the PCMCIA slots, and no complaints about either. However, sometimes I'm stuck in places where I have neither a phone jack nor an ethernet jack handy, yet must have dialup access back to my work network. I'm getting very confused by what I'm being told by cellular/PCS/whatever vendors, Ideally, I'd like to just plug in my modem to a cell phone (of whatever type) and use it just like any other phone. I'm being told this is not possible. Well, what is possible, and what would I have to buy to achieve it? Assume I'm running 4.0-STABLE, Does this even make sense? :-) Thanks in advance. -- Dann Lunsford The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil dann@greycat.com is that men of good will do nothing. -- Cicero To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
