[ILUG] UPC broadband compatibility with Linux

[ILUG] UPC broadband compatibility with Linux

Hi Kevin,

I guess your talking about a standard wireless upc router that makes a  
standard wifi connection to your wireless card or usb dongle ?

If so it should be no problem BUT if your talking about a wireless  
connection that needs a special usb dongle (like those 3g thingies)  
you might have some issues.

Cheers,

Antonie Geerts
