About ADSL :
1) I didn't try another I.P (other then the one supplied by them).
2) They don't care about the O.S.(they were happy for me trying) because
..
3) You need only 10BaseT.
4) It is very fast, especially with FTP (1 Hour for full ISO image,
and the server was the slow link).
But :
You need to start with some CGI page and enter user+password to be
routed out to the internet. It cause two problems (also in Window$) :
1) Application like mail (Communicator) are configured to on-line
connection
but at the beginning they actually disconnected from their server.
The
result in the case of the Communicator is a 1 minute freeze (unless
you
didn't configure any mailbox).
2) I didn't try being logged for more than few hours (they asked to
logoff),
but I had a case of disconnecting. In that case, one need an
interference
to reconnect.
3) (Worse) - I didn't report them yet, but I had few cases of Ethernet
disconnection : the modem (their server ?) did not answered the ping
command. The solution was : turn the modem off and on again ....
