I've just bought Bay Netgear access point and pcmcia card from
www.dabs.com=
=20
for 240UKP plugged it in this morning - 2mins later I could browse from
the=
=20
bottom of the garden :-)
NAT does not break icq (some things like the phone thingy don't work). You
=
may=20
find that netmeeting doesn't fly anymore. I do NAT on my linux box and icq=
=20
works no problems (but like I say the phone bit doesn't)
All the best
Matthew
