Hello Arjen I'm afraid you will have a lot of trouble with that... I live in Belgium, and to my shame, I think it's one of the most Linux-unfriendly countries in the World. I have Cable access at home (telenet), I got it working on my own, my provider 'allows' Linux, but there is NO support, not anything, they even refuse to put in a network-card if you're not running Windows... or plug in the modem if you've gotten the card working yourself. If you call with a problem, even if it's on their side (like a server being down), and you mention that you're running Linux, they simply refuse your call! And the situation is the same for all providers I know over here. They use Linux on some of their servers, but there's no support for their clients... It even goes as far as that I'm not able to access the web-sites (even the internal helpdesk-site) of my provider... I hate to admit it, but Belgium still is M$-owned.... and very few people out here are fighting that. I was lucky to find 1 job were I could work with UNIX (and after a while even Linux) outside of the country's capital... The best you can do is to choose a provider that has ADSL or cable connected to a network card. Buy the card yourself, and set up DHCP (let them do the windows install, and grab the settings from there if you have to). This should work. I've heard some people here in belium are using 'planet internet-adsl' or 'skynet-adsl' with Linux, but again, it's not supported in any way... I'm sorry I can't help you any further. Kind regards Guy

L.S.
We recently acquired a company in Belgium and I am looking for a good provider that does BSTMP for ISDN suscribers and is offering ADSL already.
Opinions about them welcome.
To not burden the list to heavvy please reply directly to me.
TIA
BB, Arjen
