I had planned on finding wireless connections and then ethernet networks as a backup. Either one has proven to be totally impossible. I need something I can rely on and since using public computers is too dangerous it sounds like I need to dial up. I could just make sure that there is an available phone line where I plan to go and that my dial-up provider has a local number there. Can anyone recommend a particular global dial-up company? - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
