Is it possible to link a pair of these modems back to back in order to create an extension of a LAN over a pair of copper between two buildings?

I'm guessing I need to get into the configuration to make one a master, assuming they are set to slave by default. Anyone advise please??

 ^-^  Somebody mentioned me?  :blush:

I use a Planet VC-230N configured in CO mode for testing various modems at the other end of a local loop.  :)

Perhaps a pair of Planet VC-201As will fulfil your requirements?

Thanks. I guess I should be using terms CO and CPE not Master/Slave a rather legacy description!
