Several years ago, I tried port triggering and found that the echo link
connection was spotty and I had trouble with broken audio. Todays newer
routers have more powerful processors and port triggering should work much
better on today's routers.

John,
From what I understand, port triggering will allow you to use more than one
computer. I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know if it really works, but I
plan to in the next few days so I'll let you know the results. Stay tuned.
Steve
