No problem. All services comes with a USB/Ethernet modem to which you can connect a broadband router or similar to share the one connection to a small network. An Upgrade to WiFi 4-Port Router/Firewall is available on option to all packages.

To connect to ADSL you need an ADSL modem/router to be installed at your home/business. On your PC you should have an Ethernet port with RJ45 socket. Some ADSL modems have a USB port and you could connect these modems to the USB port of you computer.

You will use your network account to log in to MyBCC and access many technology services at BCC. Students must initially create a student network account, which can then be used to access e-mail and log in to computer labs. Network accounts are set up for all BCC employees and provide a way to log in to the computer, check e-mail and access other online applications.

For wired connections users must fill out an IP address request form for each machine they want connected to the network. You will need to enter the hardware (MAC) address for the Ethernet card being used. We use DHCP to provide IP addresses for laptops, whether it is a wireless or wired connection. We will assign static IP addresses for desktop and server machines.

Yes. You can share your ADSL among computers within a small home network using any of several DSL router products. The product should be capable of IP masking and NAT (Network Address Translation), and include an Ethernet hub (10Base-T or 10/100Base-T). Follow the router's installation instructions to connect your home network to the router and the router to the gateway.

If you have purchased an ADSL modem from Adam Internet, one ADSL line filter will be included in the box. This line filter fits between a phone device and the wall socket to which it is plugged into. To install the filter, simply disconnect the device, plug the short cable which is connected to the filter into the phone socket and connect the phone device to the other side of the filter. You will need a filter on every phone device on the same line as your ADSL connection, except for the modem.

Probably. Any wireless receiver supporting the industry standard 802.11b or 802.11g protocols should work. However, in rare cases, we have found wireless receivers which had compatibility issues with the computer upon which it was installed.

Florian Xaver postet a list of intersting DOS network links to the FreeDOS mailing list: http://www.freedos.org/freedos/news/technote/157.html. Thanks a lot!

You should try increasing the switch time using "multinet changeparams -switch ". Also make sure the wireless zero config is turned off, and you are able to connect to the network. A way to check for connectivity is by following these steps. Firstly, turn off the MultiNet service, using "net stop MultiNetService". Then, turn on Wireless Zero Configuration, and try connecting to your network. Once you are done testing, turn off Zero Configuration, and turn on the MultiNet service.

No. You are not permitted to connect any 'network infrastructure' equipment to the network, therefore it is not possible to connect more than one computer.

Generally, with the equipment we're using - you need to have Line of Sight (LOS) to someone on the network already and they probably need to be within a few miles of you even with a clear LOS. Once you connect to them - you're on the network and should be able to connect to anyone else on the network regardless of how far away from you they are.

Yes. You can connect your own Local Area Network (LAN) to ADSL by using a router so that all members of your network can use the one ADSL broadband connection. The router must use PPPoE (RFC 2516) protocol.

Your employee network account is issued to you when you begin working at the college. Contact your supervisor to coordinate this request. You will need your student ID number (SID), personal ID number (PIN) and birth date or social security number. Follow the steps to set up your new account, where you’ll create your own user name and password.
