Jerry,

   I'd be surprised if you even had to work as hard at it as
Bill is suggesting.  Hardly any company is making network
hardware that doesn't respond to an ordinary web browser.

   All you need is the device's IP address to plug into
your location bar (e.g. http://192.168.1.1) and viola! you
are into the setup.

   Also, I can't imagine having an "always on" connection to
the internet without a hardware firewall.  I'm using a
Linksys unit that is totally transparent from my end but
isolates all six systems in my house from being probed from
without.  A typical unit will only run about $40 - $60, and
the peace-of-mind is priceless.

Last month DSL finally came to my rural location.  We immediately ordered
after being assured that there were no compatibility problems with Mac. OS

Macintosh drivers were included.  If anyone can offer guidance it would be
most appreciated.  Sprint "technical" assistance is not very
sophisticated.   My next step is to search Apple support to see if an
answer is out there.   Fearing dial up forever,  Jerry

Borrow a windows laptop and set it up, then return the laptop.
