Need Help: Linux Client - Roadrunner Cable Modem -Sygate

[Richard Meeker]

There's a small problem with DSL.  You must be within 18,000 cable-feet of
the switch station.  I live about 25,000 feet away from my switch which
translates into at least another $25/month for DSL.  Cable and DSL both have
their "ups" and "downs", but I went with cable and saved my pennies for a
router.  UMAX offers a pretty good router for around $250.  A router is even
a fairly wise investment for DSL.  BTW, the UMAX cable router works with DSL
also :).

The installer told me that for now additional IP's are free, but in the near
future they will charge and addition $10.00 per IP.  I've talked to folks
that have DSL and it sounds like a better deal, but its not available in my
area.

Thanx to everyone for the pointers.  I can't try them until tonight, so I
may have more questions.  Darrin
