My parents said they would cut my DSL at the end of this month. Meaning I might be going back to 56k dial-up.

i went to the library.
they have computers there. T1 connection. and i read books instead. yea... it really sucked. if i got broadband taken away from me now... hmm... i'd just have to live without it i guess, and disable images... yea... my parents just take away cable television. not broadband. don't touch the broadband! library's do have good connections tho.. |

dial up aint that slow... it probally takes a good 5 mins to dload a song now.. and if ur listening to ASF's and stuff.. probaly just 30 secs... and streaming videos and webcams probaly take another 30 secs too.. a little lag but thats okay.

I'm on dial-up now, but I have a DSL connection on the other computer... we can't get a network yet because, all our viruses will go on our new computer (Unfortunately the one with dial-up.)

Why dont you just move all the hardware (modem) and the software disk to the new computer and put dial up on the old one? |

Why are you setting up a business network  Just set up a wi-fi one and preference it to no transfer without IP.
