Socket quest question!!

Ok.. sorry for the slow respounce everyone... I was out of town for the weekend..
Ok, heres how you get around the RD issue..

56ks can just disconnect from their isp and reconnect to get rid of RD..

But I have 700kDSL,
For people that have dsl/cable..
You can set an option in your connection config so that it wont auto connect, then you can add a shortcut to your desktop that you have to use just like dial-up to connect to the isp.

Just like having 56k connection that you can disconnect and reconnect at will..

DragonDPT was correct that they get away with just about everything but 56k reminds me of the old office term sneakernet
