Got a customer who wants to beable to go to a certain site through phone dialup, and a LAN switch (cable modem) for the rest. They want something easy, all I can think of is unplus Cat5 cable when going to site, but this seems a little cumbersom. Appreciate any help given.
 
Do they need the dial-up connection to be able to access the site? If so, they can just dial-up while still connected to the LAN - just disconnect dial-up when finshed.
 
Actually, they don't want site they are dialing into to be able to pick up there ISP name. I think I've figured it out now though. I will have them disconnect LAN through shortcut on their desktop, then they can use dialup to make connection. Sounds like it'll work. Thanks.
