Hi, I'm going to be moving to London soon, and am considering getting an ADSL connection (on BT's £40 a month deal). Now, on their literature, it says that they provide a USB modem. Has anyone had any experience with these beasts, specifically on the deal that BT (or Clara.net now, I believe) - any quirks, kernel config parameters, and so on? What protocol do they use over the wire? PPPoE? Also, is there anything stopping me just using my FreeBSD box as the internet gateway to serve my small LAN? BT seem to want more wodge to install their own damn network cards in the boxes... Any comments appreciated.
