3/4     Anyone with experience with both WinGate & WinRoute? How do they
        compare?
        \_ install FreeBSD.  use natd
                \_ Idiot.
                   \_ Fuck you.  OK. Install WinGate and give me your
                      IP address so I can bounce all my packets off you.
                      \_ You're an idiot for providing the unix answer to
                         someone who wanted a windows answer.  Get off your
                         Your WinGate concerns were already covered by a later
                         comment making it clear Wingate isnt a serious answer
                         so trying to play a straw man argument as if I was a
                         Wingate supporter just because I find your netbsd
                         answer stupid and useless only makes you look like
                         a clown.  The original poster din't ask how to do
                         NAT or share a modem in the generic sense.  They
                         requested windows specific advice which you failed to
                         provide, thus, you are an idiot.  Why do I have to
                         explain things you should have learned in third grade
                         such as "always read the question"?  Enjoy your
                         religion.  Other will continue to provide useful
                         religion.  Others will continue to provide useful
                         answers while you flail around wasting everyone's
                         time with idiotic and useless replies.
                         \_ I have run both WinGate, WinRoute, and various
                            NT firewalls that do NAT both at home and at
                            work where I develop one.  WinGate and WinRoute
                            both have shitty performance, major security
                            holes, and terrible reliability.  My opinion
                            is that they both suck and that you are much
                            better off buying a $400 PPro running a
                            *BSD OS w/ natd and ipfw.  Thus...
                            install FreeBSD.  use natd.  Are you happy?
                            Now tell me, who's your daddy?
                            \_ What security holes in Winroute?
                            \_ You can't get a PPro for $400 (at least not
                               a complete machine).
                               \_ Well, you don't need a monitor for it.
                                  I am sure you can find one for that
                                  price.  But OK, fine...  Get
                      \_ Fuck you. OK. Give me your home address so I can
                         bounce my mallet off your computer.
                         \_ 2620 Hillegass Apt. 10.  Come right over
                            bitch
                         \_ It's the Compaq one. Don't touch the HP
                                  a complete K6-2  300 w/o monitor
                                  for $399.
                                  \_ Yes.  That was a real answer.  Don't you
                                     feel better now?
        \_ WinGate is a toy.  It's ok if you don't have a heavy load and
           aren't serious about it.
        \_ How about SyGate?
