Genereally, ISP "help" isn't really technical help, they just run through a checklist of common problems and solutions. > Could I get some advices for the best solution for high speed internet > with FC5? Ask them what modem/routers they support, and those they know to be a problem. Buy one, avoid the others, ask them to help you set up the modem/router. Get an ethernet one, not a USB one (doesn't matter if it has both, you'll use the ethernet connection). Setting up your PCs to work with the router is your own affair, and doesn't really require you to do anything to them that is specific to the ISP. If you can network two PCs together, you can manage to network a PC to a modem. -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
