	- hi; in view of the month-long ongoing near absence of news
	from news.demon.co.uk, it might be best to cc. any/all replies:
	please cc. to broadbnd _at_ i-m-t.demon.co.uk (well, it seems
	reasonable to create such a username for this purpose...)

	- i've been offered a broadband deal that looks good enough
	to substitute for the lamented, departed BT surftime discount
	on dial-up; i'll still need to keep my demon dial-up a/c for
	email to @i-m-t.dcu addresses, to retain my homepages and for
	the demonic newserver - if it ever returns properly - but,
	assuming [correctly?] that'll still work via the phone socket,
	what extra/alternatives will be needed to actually take advan-
	tage of the broadband connection with dos 'net software, such
	as the arachne web browser and, especially, the KA9Q (gremnos)/
	pcoak/snews+mods john washington/dis suite?

	- the router involved is, i'm informed, to be an
	              huawei echolife hg520s
	which is described to me as a wireless router with provision -
	i.e. a socket - for plugging it into a network, which suggests
	i'll need to add a network card into the dos computer here.

	- any and all help - up to & including a step-by-step walk-
	through - not merely welcome, but earnestly (& avidly) sought.

	- love, a ppint. happy to have two thrids IMT back open
	 [the address from which this was posted bounces e-mail;
	  please change the "f" to a "g" and drop the "v" if you
                     wish to cc. or e-mail me.]
