Just got a router back online after a close hit destroyed our wifi hub, and the ethernet card in my desktop computer. This is the second wifi router that has taken a hit here. At present I have taken an old PII 350 mhz with a 128 mb sim and added 2 old ethernet cards and installed Freesco on it. Took me several hours to get all the bugs worked out but tis now working properly (I think). At least I can browse and do email and such. Ping is (now) working and can reach the Freesco box via the browser to make changes. Almost time to take it all down and put the machine in a corner under the desk so I can kick it from time to time just to make sure it is still there. 😉

Got my iBook hooked up to the 5 port hub on the incoming side and using the wifi card in it to share the connection to Cat’s iBook. Guess the next thing to do is to get a wifi card for the Freesco box and see if I can get it working that way…
