Thought so. Nope, don't want to play around with VNC. My last experience was with PC Anywhere on an NT box. Too much for him (and me via long distance)

Phoneline or powerline networking is of course an option.
I'll give him that option, but I still like the concept of standard wired LAN.

So, in the end, my suggustions to him will be:

"1) Get the trencher out and use up some of your CAT5 and conduit.

2) Dump WallyAOL and get real DUN internet."

Thanks glc for getting us started on the correct path at least.
