Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Installing DSL

Content Type: text/plain

Hi, Jack - I don't know about ATT, but Verizon's requires A windoze
computer to program the router and then you won't need it again unless
you screw up the installation. So, you could borrow somebody's
notebook, do the set up (Verizon's comes on a CD), make sure your OS/2
or ecs works fine with the setup (RJ45 or wireless), and you should be
good to go (unless ATT is incredibly stupid, which I wouldn't be too
surprised about).
