Re: Build your own Web Server / Gateway for $220 or less.



The NSLU2 has only one Ethernet port, It cannot act as a gateway just a
server. You also need an HD and usb enclosure. It's alot eaiser to add
a serial port to a PC then soldering a serial cable to the NSLU2 (which
also will void any warranty). You can forget about adding a parallel
port or additional serial ports. And you still need a router.
On the other hand the NSLU2 is a cool device and very hacking friendly,
even twonkyvision supports it. A short while ago I posted about using
it as a whole home audio server.
Sounds like you've got that 266MHz NSLU2 running to it's max. The
squeezebox software runs very very slow on the NSLU2.
Cute baby; congratulations.
