Gang....

I am still a bit confused (easy to do ) but now that I have the omni  
VII talking to just one computer over a cross over ethernet  
cable..things look like they could get dicey.

My next step will be trying to get the omni VII to talk to the network.

so... either I have to get a wireless game port thingiee (about $100)  
or run a CAT five line between the router and the radio. However.. if  
I am going to do that, I may as well connect the computer down in the  
shack up as well. Right now it is running on a wireless link.

so  will a HUB be needed to connect the omni and the computer together?


here's my setup

a linksys wireless access point router
cable modem

I can "look at" the router and see it's the standard 192.168.1.1 IP  
address

using the whatsmyip.org I find my outside IP address as 24.140.XX.XX

Modern wireless routers handle 45 Mbits/sec.  I can't imagine using  
that up
in this manner.
