Some can work both ways (even simultaneously), some cannot. When they act as a gateway, that can surprise you. You might want to work between two PCs on either side of it, and find things are blocked by its firewall, or that NAT has made things difficult). It's not impossible to do, but when it doesn't work as you expected that's something to consider. Well, I think I will just hope that this stops the complaints from the iPhone users and deal with any odd problems as the become apparent. I really thought this would just work, instead Murphy's law proved true once more. I will keep your comments in mind ... -- Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA |
