Hi

I am wondering if there are any people in the group using 
Qwest DSL with their own ISP. I called Qwest tech support
and they were a bit helpful but for the most part clueless.

If you are running Linux on Qwest DSL with your own ISP as
opposed to Qwest.net I need to know:

Do you have a static or dynamic IP ?

If you have dynamic are you using Roaring Penquin as a pppoe client ?
If static do you just config eth0 with your static ?

Is Qwest using CAP or DMT encoding ? I know CAP is being phased out in 
most places.Are you using a CISCO 675 or 678 ?

I live in an apt complex and have a security system that utilizes the
phone
if someone were to break in so I may have to filter the signal or get a
"home
run" installed from the dmark to my apt, but that's a sync issue.

Thanks,

Guy
