greetings, in regards to the question(s) i have posted to the list in in June and today in terms of the Intel Pro/DSL 2200 modem it is an internal pci card that is a dsl modem... or pry more correctly a dsl "winmodem"... it is not the intel product that is mentioned at this site... http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/ a friend of mine mentioned this site... so... as you can tell there is an issue when doing searches between the intel pro/dsl 2200 modem and the intel pro/wireless 2200 units i think what i am struggling to do is find out if it is possible to load a CentOS box in such a WINEmulation or other emulation way and get this card to function on a CentOS box so i can turn cheap PCs into inexpensive gateways with this card... or, can someone recommend another internal DSL modem that i can do this with that supports DMT and works with CentOS - linux to be more specific ?? thanks in advance for any direction or pointers. - rh -- Robert - Abba Communications Computers & Internet Sales/Service www.abbacomm.net
