Satellite Internet

[bkehoe 0]

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone has succeded in getting the Europe Online satellite internet service to work in Windows 2000?

 

Also, I was wondering if anyone succeded in getting the Pentamedia Pent@NET reciever card to work - certified by Europe Online, but the site only says drivers for Win9x and NT, and Linux before year end.

 

If these don't work it'll be back to win98 se, unless I can get a hold of a cheap computer and set it up as server with Win98 ICS.

Is that "certified" card is just an Ethernet card? If so then just get ANY card that works in Win2k and set the net. If I'm not wrong it makes litle difference how u get the net. Speed, YES, but setup almoust never different.

It's not a network card. It has a tuner system on it. http://www.pentamedia.com/ptnet.html says everything about the card.

Never saw that card be4. Ya best bet would be to try WinNT and then WIn98 drivers. They might work. I doubt that Microsoft would have included beta drivers for that card.
