I'm not an expert on ADSL, however I think that as long as it uses PPPoA then it will be fine for use in the UK - I know some German Providers use PPPoE, so this could through a spanner in the works - best to find out what protocol your intended ISP uses (ALL uk uses PPPoA).

I would use a local microfilter, so i'd have the right frequency range, but i wondered if there are other issues with this. (amongst other things, it would be to upgrade debian on my laptop when traveling about, so there you are : this links it to Linux :-) ) Thanks, Elise **************************************************************************** ******* This email and any accompanying files are confidential.
