2003-03-30 13:27 / ADSL bunnies »
I'm now the puzzled owner of a promotional tea-towel heralding the delight brought to a family of rabbits after they sign up to BT's Home Network 1200.
e.g.: Susie was surprised that to find there were no websites dedicated to radishes, so she emailed 'fancysalads.com' to enquire about the lack of information. Daddy Rabbit caught up with the latest fox avoidance techniques and Mummy could chat as long as she wanted to Aunt Mimi. Oh what joy!
'Home Network 1200' is itself a clever bunny, in that it uses your standard telephone wires / extensions as the physical layer of a LAN (with technology from HomePNA). For £249 you seem to get an ADSL modem/firewall/NAT router/HomePNA router, and USB adaptors for two PCs. Additional PC adaptors come in at £50 a shot. Pricey.
The topologies can also get a bit fiddly.
