To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG (Free BSD Questions list) Date: Tue, 24 Nov 1998 13:09:25 -0500 (EST) From: "Stan Brown" X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a FreeBSD machine that I use for my gateway to the internet via a local dialup ISP, and user mode ppp, with IP alliasing. Works great!. Now ComCast has just started offering cable modems in my area. Motorola Bitsurfer, fixed IP address, up link speed 1.5MB downlink 3MB. Plus they are offering free installation for a limited time. I am seriously considering puting a second NIC card in thei box, and trying it. I was wondering if anyone had experience with Comcast@Home? Or any experience with Motorola Bitsurfers? Any gotcha's that I should be concerned about here?
