[DuoList] (VERY off topic) request for an image of an aol 5.0 install cd!

Hey ralph; thanks for the response.

Yeah, I need the pc version of aol 5.0; sorry I was not clearer.

And yes, under normal circumstances any device able to receive a wifi signal could use airport's base station, but I am using it to send a dial-up signal (via airport's own internal modem) wirelessly in my relative's house, and it requires that you use "aol 5.0" to connect.

I have already set it up, and it works with the old mac classic version of aol 5.0, but I need a pc version of aol 5.0 to see if a pc can access the "wifi 56k" signal, too!

Thanks again to you and the last 4 the help!

Craig, I found it on the net, but it's a 10MB file. It's the Mac  
Classic version....it wasn't clear if you needed the PC version.

Can your Blackberry handle it? ;-)

Plus, that's just plain wierd. I would think any 801.b pc/mac should  
be able to use it as router.  I assume you are just using it in lieu  
of wires throughout the house vs having found a wireless point in the  
surrounding area?
