As for modem/router I have been fighting an Alcatel USB modem for a friend's Mandrake laptop and eventually gave up and got a cheap router (Origo - �35 on ebay). No more problems.

BT have finally got the lead out and are enabling our exchange this week! Should have sorted this out ages ago but there's nothing like the eleventh hour to sharpen the mind.
So I want an ADSL connection (scrapping my expensive ISDN line). Can anyone help with recommendations on modem to use, best provider, etc?
Both BT and Tiscali offer free modems, but can these be used with Linux? I've seen the recommendations for Force9, but what gear should I get to be able to use them?
Any help gratefully received - if I wasn't working in Ireland there'd be pints at the next meeting as an extra inducement but I suppose I'll just have to rely on your goodwill!
TIA,
Colin
