Thank you to all of you that have helped me.
Ok, it has been my understanding that sharing an internet connection is
possible with a dial up connection. Was I mistaken? We live too far out to
get DSL or cable. If I was mistaken, any ideas on how to make it work?
Thanks Huge for the site of D-link, there is another article there that
informs me that this hub will not allow internet access through it. So if I
can share a connection with dial up I'm looking for a router. Any
suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
