Ok, DNS worked perfectly and I got my Sunray running @ home.
First impressions... usable for speed can for sure be optimized.
I read lot of topics regarding the importance of MTU. What are your
experiences? tips?

I got in my tcpdump output:

09:23:37.966696 xxx.xxx.xxx > yyy.yyy.yyy: icmp: xxx.xxx.xxx unreachable - need 
to frag (mtu 1252) [tos 0xc0]

Regards,
Xavier
