[sudo-discuss] Ethernet down at liberated lens office, & iCrap upgrade

[danarauz at gmail.com]

I see. I don’t recall the name right now, but there is a converter from
fiber to copper, and from there can go to the pc. I imagine it should be
fine. Before buying anything is good to know what kind of fiber is being
provided by LMI, (Single mode or Multi Mode), and type of connectors LC or
?.  They should tell you all that.
