If I were you, I would look into co-locating your server with some local ISP, or even national providers in your area. Prices vary, depending on company and package, but I think an average startup cost is 400 and goes up from there (At least I think that is the current going rate here in Indy). There are some drawbacks of course, but for what it sounds like you want to do, it's not something you couldn't get around. Hope that helps, and I'm sure you'll get better answers. :) -- Robert Hough (rch@qserve.net) Qserve Internet, Inc. http://www.qserve.net/ Ph: (317)802-3036 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
