Hi Robert

     OK, I didn't know that TELNET was readily available at
the command prompt.  Thanks.

     Now the next problem is that the ISP has passworded the
Modem\Router.

     Any ideas how to get around the password?

     I am a little busy with house construction this week end.  I try
connecting the DLink router in between the Modem and my computer during
the week.

     Thanks
