Just signed up to go broadband, so should be set to go late this week/early next.
Hardware on order, BT primed, ISP ready...
Now... I need to know what else to do. Please treat me as a complete layman here...
Firewall: I guess I need a software one. Recommendations? I prefer free to download and easy to set up.
Anything else? I have only ever used 56K dialup from home before.
Running W2K SP3 btw.
As I am going for a wires-only service, what potential problems might I have? I have ordered filters and a USB adsl modem, and the phone socket is right next to the machine anyway
I like to be prepared in advance to troubleshoot the inevitable difficulties...
Many thanks
Gnep
