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
Daniel

I did ask at the time of the instlation why optus were not currently using the Motorola SB3100 and the reply i got was something like they are unsafe or a security risk to the network as hackers could get through. [/QUOTE]
you may be right there.. if you goto the [url]http://www page you will notice that they are going to be taking parts of the network down (at the users end) for a firmware upgrade to the sb3100 modems.. which seems to be a bit of a shitter. still better than dialup tho, anyone with a cm200 want to swap? hehe :)
a quick search on google turned this article which kind of talks about security auth.. but dosnt say anything specefic about security problems with the sb3100
