Tell Qwest you want to use a local ISP instead of MSN.  The local ISP will
give you better service, and you won't be guilty of sending money to M$.

You shouldn't have any problem using an run-of-the-mill Cable/DSL router/hub
to share the service with your LAN, so long as you use only one public IP.
If you need more than one public IP, there again is a great reason to go
with a local independent ISP instead of M$N.
