USWest shipped me a box a year and a half ago with nuthin' but a plastic 
Dixie cup with CISCO written in magic marker on it, a handful of resistors
and capacitors pulled (with a pliers, evidently) from an old TV set, a 
slightly used piece of tin foil, an AOL version 3.0 diskette, and an 
ethernet card(BNC connector only.).

I glued the stuff together, plugged it into my Gigabit Ethernet hub, and I 
was up and running within 15 minutes! Haven't looked back.
