thanks for the info on what a MAC address is. I have another question. If I already have used the "self starter" kit for my high speed cable connection but am moving to another location and the account will not be in my name next time, do I need to do another "self starter" kit for my setting up high speed cable access? What does the kit do? I know my roomate will have to call in the info for my modem, serial numbers and all but what about this kit, do you have to do that all over again? cristy To unsub or change your email settings: http://www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ http://www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: http://www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk
