UsaSat/Surfbeam is a straight tcpip connection (also with static IP) and
runs on VxWorks.
(Which is Windows, after all...) ;-)
I thought VXworks was built on VRTX? I don't think there are any similarities between VRTX and Windoze. :)
I stand corrected; you are closer to the truth of the matter, my friend. My earlier impression came from some faulty data I read concerning the latest round of LinkSys boxes (WRT54G v5) based on VxWorks. Here's an interesting link: http://www.xs4all.nl/~borkhuis/vxworks/vxw_pt0.html#0.1.
Apologies for the (my) confusion. As VxWorks is just about as ornery to deal with (as it's proprietary, we don't have many available hacks for it - in the Wi-Fi world, at least, where I've had to interact with it), I just started lumping it in with Windows after reading what I did concerning the v5 LinkSys devices.
