RE: Re: BT Satellite - sharing the connection

["Roger" <roger@xxxxxxx>]

Mate in pub reports that the single user connection version will only
connect to one PC, and will not work with a WAN Switch/ Router. Seems that<= BR> the satellite box needs to get some SW or Config from the PC. So only
solution seems to be to run some routing/ NAT software on the PC.

System to connect to multiple PCs is =A3400 more and =A345 a month more (if= I
remember correctly)
