Title: Computer Type Help Needed.
Post by: herthab on Thursday, October 25, 2007, 16:30:35
Been given a piece of kit for my work laptop that will enable me to use it from home, through my broad band. The problem is that I need a 4 port network router (He also mentioned ethernet connection?)

The kit I've got is GRAS.

Does anyone know what the fuck all this means, what I need and where I can get it? (And how much it'll cost)

Not sure you've got everything, what I have is a seperate vpn router that i plug into my adsl line and hook up via a network cable to my laptop, Is it a kosher or dodgy piece of work kit? Because seems to me you have a bit missing somewhere along the line

I was going to suggest if he needed any help setting it up you could probably pop round.

Not saying Steve couldn't do it perfectly well by himself...... Obviously  :D
