OK. Here we go again: 1. Etinc has always supported: a. Their drivers. b. Their adapters. c. Getting a connection to work with your upstream ISP. They helped me do this on: 1. PPP 2. Frame Relay 3. HDLC (Cisco) ...all of which are still running today...very nicely. In addition their hardware is: 1) sexy, 2) nice, 3) cool, and oh ... 4) the stuff really works...driver included. IMHO there is NO other T1 card that is economically feasable...you must learn routing concepts on your own...you should know them by now anyway. 2. Etinc's job is NOT to support: a. Your routing from the route standpoint. They did not write routed, gated, or any other routING product. b. You, in learning what an IP route is and how to setup a default gateway and how to route a block of IP's to another interface on the web server across YOUR network and etc... Dennis is a great guy once you can just get past the cold methodical non-emotional approach he has and do the job. He is like that because of dealing with a lot of big companies who could care less and JUST WANT THE JOB DONE and won't be having tea with him later...that's for sure.
