- I looked at AT&T's WorldNet FAQ. For configuration it says
-
- "You'll need an IBM compatible PC 80386sx processor with Microsoft
- Windows 3.1 or higher. In addition, 8 MB RAM and 11 MB free hard disk
- space is needed."
- ...
- "MAC compatible in the near future."
-
- I suppose that means they are not using a standard dialup access like
- SLIP or PPP.
