I have no idea and they (IT) won't say - setup? Same answer. I do know
it is accessed with a seperate client. They provide the CD with the
software on it - seems as I recall it was software from somebody who
also makes routers..whose name I can't recall.

I have all the passwords and info I need but I don't run Windows. 

Big help eh?

Cheers
