If your DSL provider connects you via a network card you will not be
connected via your serial port and question # 2 will only apply to
computer # 1 the DynaSt ore receiver's output port.  It will apply to
Computer # 2's input port  which will have TS 4.0 on it.

Correct.  The delays you experience will not be caused by your
equipment.

The question Ron was going to investigate was if the baud setting's
limitation in TS's server would be the weak link in such a setup.
What I gather from the past postings is that the data buffer SIZE
plays an important part, perhaps more so than SPEED,  if speed is
greater than the server can be set for, if the server is the weak
link.

I can give you some facts that by inference might answer your
question.  E-Signal told me as recently as Friday afternoon Feb 18th
that E-signal will NOT refresh your data even with TS2Ki.  It will
fill in gaps and refresh for the last 5 days if you are using
something OTHER than an Omega product, such as their software that
comes free with the service.  They also said that you can run/feed
both TS2Ki and their free software at once since it uses the same
server files.  It would be useful to hear from someone actually using
Quote.com if the refresh is workable with TS 4.0 or TS2Ki.
