It won't let you get to the Internet without being some place that has an Internet connection. If someone brings a box to your place or you bring your box to where there are other computers, you'll be able to connect to them using local networking. ciao, der.hans --=20 # https://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.AZOTO.org/ # "Life is pain, Highness!
