(34 posts)It appears my last edit came to late, here is a copy of the edit I was adding to my last post:
If by num you mean 192.168.1.254 then there is nothing to worry about. That is an address that only works in your local network. No one can get to your modem page from their internet connection.
On Gimp2, I haven't used that before. I'll have to look it up.
Edit: Or at least the latest version. I think I may have tried Gimp before. I'm not sure why I didn't keep it then.
OK, I just did not want everybody to get to my profile.
Gimp2 is a very powerful picture editor and has a good documentation. And it's free. Here is a video demo:

Interesting. I'll have to wait until I have an image to edit to see how it works.
I don't edit images that much.
Also on the Netopia gateway I looked and it does do NAT like a router does.
So I can rephrase what I said earlier to be that you need a DSL Modem + Router or an Internet Gateway to share an internet connection between computers unless you have a second Ethernet port. In which case Windows XP/Vista can make your computer into an internet gateway.
Note: Post delayed about 30 minutes due to unresponsive computer.
Oddly Enough after waiting about 30 minutes it became responsive keeping my post text and all.
I use Gimp2 a lot to make mock-up's like the Moulin Rouge one and the Geek as Neptun in this thread http://www.howtogeek.com/forum.....replies=20 . I take pictures of friends and place them into places where they have never been. It's always a lot of laughs. The preperations I do with Word 2007. I make a cutout with "shapes" into e.g. a picture of the Eiffel Tower. Then I put the friends into the cutout. And then I use Gimp2 to correct the environment exactly the way it was on the original (Eiffel Tower in this case). If you choose pictures that halfway match regarding the exposure (light or dark), then it is really hard to tell that it is a mock-up.
