i absolutely hate those installation CD's you get with DSL or cable installation kits, you never need them and most of the time it just changes the animation at the top right corner of IE to a cox logo.

I've hooked up several COX accounts, both with and with-out a router and they always come up just fine without contacting COX. The only trouble I have is if the filter is left in the line, but not much that I can do about that (or at least, willing to discuss on list :>). I noticed no one here said it yet (that I've seen), but getting a SOHO router (Linksys, NetGear, etc...) might not be a bad idea. Justin W. Pauler
