Subject: Sprint ION on FreeBSD?

I'm preparing to get an internet connection back and I'm fed up with
Verizon DSL, and with Covad on the rocks, I dont see any point in buying
into ANY DSL line. [Please dont try and sway me...I dont want DSL or
CABLE]

Luckily, I'm in a Sprint ION area; with a small business plan I'm allowed
to host servers! My only reservation is...will it work with FreeBSD! I've
confirmed that ION does not rely on PPPoE [which isnt a big deal, since
it can be worked around, but still..its a hassle] but it DOES rely on
this "C90 Gateway".

Has anyone had experience with Sprint ION on BSD OS's?

Thanks,
