You could actually setup a third VCC connection on your M11* modem, which
you could then connect to the games realm, and then add the neccessary
static routes to the modem to route traffic accordingly. However I do
beleive this requires an extra port at the exchange, which of course Telecom
won't provide. Why should they do something for free?

On a similar note, wouldn't it be possible to do 2 ppp sessions over the
0:100 vcc and route the jetstreamgames and paradise ip's to that (static rt)

and everything else down you shiny new JetStart/Whatever?

I had a go at this today, but I think it'll have to wait till I get a modem
I
can actually play with (grumble Telecom password doesn't let me play with
enough stuff)
