Or why not firewall your local PC and open the wireless ADSL link to the
neighbourhood. In a few years the country will most likely be covered by
wi-fi or its successor anyway.
I spend quite a bit of time in Ireland and free wireless access over
there is taking off in a big way because the cabled phone system is too
poor to support ADSL. Many towns have wi-fi WANs set up by the local
community in this way.
