Hi,

I'm switching from cable to ADSL in a month and I was wondering what =
(kind of) modem I should best go for. Would it best be one that connects =
to a NIC or to USB. I'm now using a (console) NAT & proxy server, with =
which I should be certain it works. For this, I would like to have some =
possibility to automatically dial at boot time (or if the modem takes =
care of that, even better).=20

Should someone be using an ADSL modem on this kind of connection, would =
it be possible to tell some more about it?

Thx in advance,

Benny Goemans
