RandyC 0 Posted July 4, 2002 I think that things should continue as they are for the moment with normal ISP charges to the net. I don't think neighbourhood lans will be very popular at all with the regular 'joe bloggs' sort of person. Share this post Link to post

RandyC 0 Posted July 4, 2002 I know cable modems run off a neighbourhood node .. but you can't access any other persons pc on that node making this a very restictive sort of a LAN . My original point is still valid as many people will not find no need for file sharing across the cable network in this way and they certainly wouldn't want to arrange a shared cost with neighbours on their connection. You dont do it with any other services ... why should the net be any different. Share this post Link to post
