I am not sure if the DHCP server is there. I use Bell's Sympatico (Canada) DSL service which works through usual telephone line. The software they provided woks fine and I cheked the windows IP config and the result is DNS suffix: sympatico.ca IP 192.168.2.2 subnet: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.2.1 I am going to set the same settings now in FC2. I will let you know the result. On Sun, 08 Aug 2004 18:40:34 -0400, Scot L.
