This is probably a dumb question, but how do I boot up my computer in
safe mode? I have a Compaq Presario with the Windows 98 operating
system. Yesterday, I tried holding down the Contol key when it was
booting up. When I did that, it gave me the option of booting up (by

The non-profit organization I work for received a donation of 50 3Com
HomeConnect IDSL modems and we would like to find out if IDSL modems
can connect directly to each other?
Your help is appreciated.

Hi, just moved to the Boston burbs (Waltham) and found that one can
get DSL with verizon for something like $35/mo (doesn't sound bad).  I
do have a few questions (and had a b*tch of a time getting answers
while i don't use thier service) since i am a DSL/broadband newbie

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you have.  I recently installed
verizon DSL on a winXP pc (westell dual connect, USB modem connection
with 3 lit lights, no router), and it seems to work reasonably well
overall.  Most web sites work fine, and I can receive email using

Can you test for the presence of DSL signal on your phone line with an
ordinary 100MHz scope?  If so what do I look for?
Thanks

I am trying to connect to a LAN that uses adsl with a static IP, from
a remote location,  and logon to my server and be a part of the LAN.
If amyobne has any good tech help,  that would be great.
Thanks, Ted

I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and recently received the DSL installation
kit from Verizon.
I have a Compaq computer with Windows 98SE and an Ethernet card. Verizon
provided a Westell WireSpeed DSL modem and a CD-ROM with MSN 8 on it. After I

I can't connect to the DI-804 Router I borrowed from my brother. I've
set up a network with 2 computers on one side and a cable modem on the
other side. The config's have worked when I've done it before, but now
everything I try seems useless.

Hallo zusammen,
DSL-Modems für den normalen Downlink gibt's ja wie Sand am Meer. Aber  
bietet jemand das auch für die umgekehrte Richtung an?
(Genauer bräuchte ich ein Pärchen an Modems, also: Master + Slave zur  

It wasn't long ago that I thought Verizon DSL was doomed. ATT Broadband was
blowing it away. They both cost around $50/mo. I always felt the price point
for Broadband to take off was under $30. Then, Verizon must have hired a
real marketing guru. Suddenly, what was once a TIP and ...

I have DSL coming into a modem and then into our main computer (win 98
SE), but now it has become necessary to share this connection with two
other laptops through wireless cards. I think what I need to do is get
an Ethernet DSL modem, and have both the desktop (already has an

Spectacular arrogance!
I have been their DSL customer since the Manhattan beta test. I
simply asked how Covad stacked up to VOL. Some nitwit from VOL
decided that the post was OT.

I am having a home telephone installer setup a home run from the NID
to my computer - about 30 feet give or take a few inches.  I am
requesting a dedicated DSL outlet, and a new voice outlet.
Can anyone recommend a moderately priced whole house splitter, to be

I've about given up on DSL since it will be years before it's available out
here in the sticks (25 miles west of Forth Worth, Texas) and cable is not
available, either, so ISDN looks to be my only reasonably priced option for
faster internet access.  I have a next door neighbor that ...
