Broadband access

Service is much improved - d/l speed on linux is sometimes 2gb/sec
oftentimes less - upload better than before - service not always up - still
ain't perfect.

requires it's own NIC - you can use Trinity OS ipchains for instant firewall

Sorry but I can't subscribe to mailing lists from here... Please reply
directly (at least CC to me ;)
Seems like the transition of SpeedChoice to Sprint finally happened.
It's now on http://www.sprintbroadband.com/
The service seems good for the price ($40 for 2-way, finally a decent
price ;) but I'm not sure how the connection works (i.e. I know that
for ADSL on Linux you need PPPoE). Anyone with knowledge of
how easy it is to use their service without an M$ OS (or Mac for
that matter)? Anyone have a quick recipe on the settings needed
for the network card?
Thanks!
Emmanuel
