When I switched from Sprint  Broadband Direct (MMDS - 2.4 GHz RF) which used 
a cable modem to DSL I could  no longer access my AR-Cluster node using the 
internet IP address.  I had  to use the internal LAN IP address of the PC with 
the cluster.  But this  is only relevant if you actually have the node at your 
location, which I don't  think is the situation.
 
WL does pass the spots to the  spots window for me though I don't have an 
OBJECTS section.  I just  looked at K9JY's web site and don't find anything on 
the OBJECTS section at  all.  I just noticed that he wrote you too.
 
I'm  stumped



I have determined that it's my Norton Internet Security firewall that is  
preventing WL Packet Terminal from accessing the Internet.  I can turn off  the 
firewall, and WL PT accesses the Internet just fine.  With it on,  however, 
access is blocked.  HyperTerminal gets thru the firewall just  fine, 
interestingly enough.
 
I spent some time last evening trying to figure out how to make the  firewall 
not block WL PT, but to no avail.  It ain't obvious, but I will  persist, hi.
