I really don't want to have to get a third phone line if I can help it. I also wanted to do this to capture audio from a certain machine so I could receive it at home, and telnet to the other machine to give commands to start listening to whatever I wanted. One of my friends has road runner cable internet, and his ip address has never changed yet in 2 to 3 weeks, so if I could hear the audio he hears at my end I could listen to a lot more shows than I can with 28.8. He says rr downloads at 1.5 megs a second, and uploads about 512 k. >Hi: > >You could use some form of wireless ethernet (mightn't go far enough >though) but it wouldn't be secure.
