Re:Not an important question really. (Score 1)

I have ADSL through Verizon at home and bought a Linksys 4-port cable/dsl router for about $200. It's definitely worth it. I comes pre-configured to work as a DHCP so I can pull connect my iMac, my Win98 laptop from work or whatever without installing the PPPoE software on every machine. It probably would also solve any problems with Linux.
