Karen, You don't need any of that crap. Just hook your PC up to the cable modem and go. Or better, hook a router up to the cable modem and then hook all your pcs up to that. Buy a domain name for $15 / year (less if you get several years at a time). Then get a web site ($7 / month or so for the cheapies). That gives you X email addresses - kNicholson at NicholsonConsulting.com. You can usually set up FTP to / from your site for sending big stuff to clients. Definitely worth the small expense. I have owned ColbyConsulting.com for many years now and my email never changes (with proper precautions to prevent spam of course). John W.

This is what the #1 in resources woman has been able to do. My problem was when I put in the Adelphia CD to hook up through the cable modem, I needed a password to activate the connection. What I didn't realize is that I don't have to use the username and password that is coming in on that connection. Solution: Found a person willing to give me his name and password. Then set up a new account, as Adelphia allows 7 addresses. Hahahah!!! Always a way. Gives me something to do in my spare time. :) -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of DWUTKA at marlow.com Sent: Monday, January 31, 2005 11:58 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [AccessD] OT - Internet Access They do have satellite internet.

I am trying to work using dial-up and it is impossible as one can imagine. The person holding the account will not give me the password to set up the cable connection, nor can I add the phone feature? Great roomates, huh?
