Hello! :) The problem I will encounter with this solution is that my ISP will only allow the router to give 4 IPs to the LAN (through DHCP, right). Thus additional nodes could be only connected through a local proxy server (one of the DHCP client).. I guess it is feasable but I'm not sure... On Tuesday 29 May 2001 20:42, Bob Rea wrote:

Hello!
I'm in front of a decision and would appreciate some advice :) I currently have a 5 nodes LAN containing a proxy server connected to the Internet through ISDN. ADSL is becoming available in my region in June and I've been waiting for this to come for years now.
I have dsl here in san francisco, and i have a relatively inexpensive router that allows 4 boxes to be connected to the dsl. It does dhcp, so you can use that for the four boxes, or you can give them each a static ip. It also contains a firewall.
I believe you can get them for more than 4 boxes. Mine is made by Asante' and costs about USD 150
