Guys ... Seems we can get Optus@home come the 4th of next :D
Question is this .. There are 2 different modems supplied by Optus right ? (USB and whatever else) .... I have been told that the USB modem is a pain in the ass to share and with whatever the other one is it becomes much easier.
The plan is to run a server via a network switch and 2 PC`s off that switch. Any and all advice welcome here as im confused all to hell here :confused:
Regards and thanks in advance

Hey Wizard,
At the moment they are supplying Nortel Network CM200's as far as I know. I know at least 5 people who have got O@H in the last 3 months, and all of them have received these modems.
What you are talking about is whether they supply you with a PCI network card or a USB network card. The technicians seem to prefer supplying the USB card as it is very easy for them to install and doesn't involve pulling apart your PC.
If you want to share O@H what you really need is the server machine with two PCI network cards in it. One plugs into the cable modem and the other plugs into your switch.
So make sure you get the PCI network card when they install it!
Seeya,
