Broadband "always on" - will this work with a laptop???
#1
Probably a very dumb question...
I'm looking at getting a broadband ISP service installed at home, which apparently means PC connection 24hrs a day. However, I use a laptop which moves between my home and office, hence de-connection on a daily basis, will this screw up the broadband service??
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
David.

I have the NTL broadband service at home, and use my laptop here and at work. I just have it configured to automatically get an ip address from the server, so when I plug it in at home it gets the address from ntl, and when I plug in at work it gets the address from works server. This is running XP though. Not sure how successful you'll be if you're running win98 or the like...
