[PLUG] Re: Verizon DSL


I just traded in Verizon DSL for Comcast.

Having to reconnect is a nuisance, especially on shared connections and Comcast is a nose cheaper too. Comcast works on DHCP and if networking is working on your computer will pretty much just work.

I also just picked up a router/firewall device for $60 (including shipping). It supports PPPoE and if you're doing DSL is a must. Its got a simple web interface so even computer novices can be trained to reconnect to DSL. The company that sold me my LANReady 840 is avready.com.
