Hi,
   
  I am new to this GPRS connection, usually when i
need internet access i just use dial up connection.
   
  Then i found cheap internet connection using GPRS,
its like using hand phone (cellular phone), and i bet
this cellular phone has a modem in it.
   
  When i typed "ipconfig /all" on my server (i have
home LAN, and server is using xp sp 2), then something
show like :
  ================================
  PPP adapter lll:
   
          Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : 
          Description . . . . . . . . . . . : WAN
(PPP/SLIP) Interface
          Physical Address. . . . . . . . . :
00-c-c-c-c-c
          Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
          IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . :
10.11.246.114
          Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . :
255.255.255.255
          Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
10.11.246.114
          DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : x-x-x-x
                                              x-x-x-x
          NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Disabled
  ====================================
   
  then i click my connection status windows, and i can
see something 
like :
   
  server IP Address : 10.11.246.115
  client IP address : 10.11.246.114
   
  ==================================
   
  My first question is :
  Who's 10.11.246.114 and who's 10.11.246.115 ? i keep
thinking that 
10.11.246.114 is my server (my box with windows xp sp
2) and 
10.11.246.115 is my handphone, is it right ? 
   
  and everytime i do the tracert or traceroute, i got
192.168.66.2 in 
my first hop (i got 192.168.66.2 in second hop if i do
traceroute in 
client), it's seem 192.168.66.2 is a router, isnt it ?
   
  If you have good article/tutorial for dummies about
GPRS connection, i'll be glad if i get informed
   
  thanks
