Hi Dana,

Thanks for the warning but I wasn't at all worried about the law.
If they wanted to get to me, they would.
If they wanted to get you, they would.
Nothing you could do would stop them as your ISP knows everything.

It's the same with my car keys. Nothing I do is going to stop the law from
towing my car away even if I lock it up with chains around it.

But, I don't lock my car door to keep the cops away.
I lock my car door to keep some kid in the neighborhood from rifling
through my purse and makeup I keep in the glove compartment.

I'm just trying to gain a modicum of privacy on the internet by switching
my identity and any connecting factors.

Do you know if there is a way to send a wake-up signal to make the Linksys
router send the ppoe (or whatever it is) signal to dial back into an ISP
once I plug the dsl router back in?
