I am planning to set up ka9q as a router to hookup a remote computer over phone lines to our local network: | Local Network |-------| ka9q |-------| remote Computer | | The way I understand it, I could use ppp or slip, which 1 is better ? Also, Zhen Li <lizhen@silver.ucs.indiana.edu> posted a related question on Fri, 3 May 91 13:17:21 . I would greatly appreciate it, if the response goes over the network, rather than by private mail, I am sure there are many people with a similar scenario, who would benefit. Also, is it possible to have remotely a powerful PC, such as a 386, that would run ka9q in 1 window and allow the user to use the PC in another window ? autoexec.net for similar scenarios appreciated. Many thanks in Advance Camille Kayruzian opschk@ganges.ucop.edu 415 987 03 62

Camille, I solved my problem by slowing down the burd rate. It turned out that the PC(XT) I used as the gateway was too slow to handle the incoming package, so it droped bytes in every package. Hope this helps. Zhen
