So sign up with Directv DSL. Verizon line, external router, static ip.
'course, I should mention I booted into windows to set mine up, but that
shouldn't be required. Their install just needs your computer to run
dhcp to the modem/router box they ship you the first time you setup.
(Actually, that might not even be necessary, as the setup sequence is
very predictable, but dhcp is the easy way.)
And use my name, then I get a free month!
