Rick, thanks, we haven't tried that. The customer whose situation I'm trying to create is in Italy, and communication has been difficult. I'll see if an upgrade or modem swap is feasible. However, he may be using this same modem on a Novell router without a problem. I'll have to check on that. But thanks again for the advice.
