Hi John,

No drivers required.

With my own cable setup, I was confident that they didn't have an installer
compatible with OS X so I just picked up the phone and called tech support.
They assured me that an OS X compatible installer was on the CD and to give
it a whirl.  Silly me!  I found it and it worked just like they indicated.

What their software does do is automate the registration of your account
period.  There's not much configuration as DHCP will do everything
automatically for you.  Having a router as part of your configuration may
throw you a curve, but you can always call them regarding that.  And once
you set up one, you'll realize that even that call wasn't necessary.
