Re: ADSL Visits an Exchange near me & Service advice

Hi Gerard, many thanks for your answers, here's a bit more 
detail/questions!

>  2.) I assume the company will provide me the hardware to connect
my WORK PC to the ADSL line, is it possible to add a Vigor or 
somethinglike that to the line in parallel? (I'm guessing not but 
thought i'd ask)
> >Not sure why you want to do that?

I was thinking along the lines of having the work PC completely 
seperate to the home network but able to see the same ADSL line, is 
this possible?

> 3.) Is there any reason why I couldn't connect the work PC to my 
home LAN and use the gateway from the LAN, all the software needs is 
an interent connection to access the office network (Nortel VPN 
software)?

> 4.) Would this affect the rest of my LAN in any Way?

> > Just assume that ADSL is just like a normal 56k modem link, 
except a lot faster. A VPN will happily run over it.

> 5.) The above assumes I change the domain of my home network to be
the same as work (not a huge issue) but is there a way to do it 
without changing?

> > If you are using a VPN to dial into a corporate network then 
there is no need to change the domain.

In order for the work PC to see the gateway does it not need to be on 
the same domain/workgroup as the gateway/home network?? If that is 
the case then the logical way around to change things is have the 
home network renamed the same as the work one.

Cheers

Paul
