Does the Ricochet communicate using PPP > and can you use other DNS's other than the Ricochet ones? Thanks. Yes. It's just like a modem. We have a P133 laptop that's working perfectly using user-mode ppp. Since the University of Oregon has a gateway set up, we dial & connect through them. Like with any other dial-up connection, you use the remote's DNS server. If you are using the Ricochet internet service then use their settings.
