Re: [LUG] Redhat 7.3 & Alcatel

hi there - welcome to the group

if you get a router make sure it has a built in modem.

the routers for about £60 are ethernet only - ones with a ADSL modem are 
about £110/120

i've just set up the solwise SAR715 and it seems fine with my ADSL from 
demon - and it has a built in 10/100 4 port switch,
