Would it be easier/more effective/less hassle to use an ISDN Brouter
plugged into your LAN?  I know the basics of what ISDN is, the channel
characteristics and such, but am not really up on exactly how it is
used in the BSD world.

If I were connecting to a local ISP via ISDN, could I typically just
buy a Brouter that understands TCP/IP over ISDN and plug it into my
LAN?
