Hi Duane,
Oh my. You are great! Instead of getting emotional and working around the
question, you not only helped me better understand the question, you also
helped me better understand what is really going on.
I see now that it is not the "router's" IP address in my NNTP POsting Host,
but, the MODEM's IP address!
Thanks... I'll try to say it correctly in all future posts.
I think we have only three questions to agree or disagree on:
1. Does the MAC have a bit which indicates it has been changed?
2. Is changing a MAC before public hotspot access additive to privacy?
3. Is removing the modem's IP address from posts additive to privacy? |
