Does anyone know how Megapath works (hope I've got the name right)? If you've got a single LAN that needs to function in two locations (in this case, two kiosks in a shopping mall on different levels--so there's no running ethernet between them), it's supposed to send the ethernet back to the C.O. over a pair and back out to the other location on another. Or something. Can that work? I've never heard of this. You can't maintain four pairs to and from that way, so I don't know how the far end can see it.

1) Megapath is a company
2)what you are describing is an ethernet extender. is an example with a cute diagram.
I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
