Hmm, well if you got the home page you got more than me.

Did you actually try setting up your dialler to connect
to the Freeonline ISP?

( I can also get their home page if I use another ISP )

Also, they reckon they're Netscape 4.5+ compatible,
so we should be able to use their homepage
selections.

Regards
Chris.

Hi Chris.

I checked the web home page, and found it was the one that NAB bank
was promoting but I couldn't use it because I had Netscape and OS/2
and therefore didn't have the (expected, required) MS software to
connect with the various services like FreeFax. I could do a few free
things but that was all.

I guess it's a case of I got what I paid for.

I'm looking at getting one of these boxes to hookup my cable modem to, and
have my machines running off it.  Anyone using one, the box says Netscape 4
or greater to configure the router I'm wanting to make sure that it will
work C/2 4.61
