The guy who set up their network is very very good.  I know for sure a few 
people are running Solaris on their network, so I imagine linux should be 
okay - but it's always the same... if you want support, you know what to 
do:)

They've also (so far) had a very good reputation with the guys I work with 
that have their cablemodem service for uptime and speed.

Re: Meeting tonight, Sun cables, Charter

I have had cable with AT&T for quite a while and have not 
had any major problems.   I have a wireless router coming 
off of my cable modem, so all my machines get on the 
internet just fine by doing DHCP from the router.
