I want to build something like a small ISP for my local family members(of course Id be using FBSD for the host). I got the pricing from Bell Atlantic for the line, but they say I still need an ISP. Could someone explain this to me? Say I wanted dedicated 128K. That would cost me $200/month, plus I need to subscribe to "somebody.whatever" for an additional $20/month? Plus, with a 128K line, the way it's explained, I can accept incoming calls at the same time. Is that true? Can anyone direct me to a FAQ or something explaing the typical cost breakdown of something like this. -- Potts, Ross A.
