At this moment I use ISDN connection to my ISP. But now I can get an TV-CABLE connection which is much faster than ISDN. But does SuSe 6.0 support this kind of connections, and what kind of software is needed for this kind of connection. Are there any TV-CABLE MODEMS supported yet.
That depends on how the cable modem is implemented. If it is an internal card (PCI or ISA) it needs a driver (or it needs to provide hardware emulation of a supported card). However, it could also be an external box that you connect to via a normal ethernet, or it might use ATM.
Can I use masquerade under Linux, as I do with ISDN?
If it works as a network interface, there should be no problem getting masquerading to work - especially if you have already set up masquerading for your ISDN line. You simply change the interface names it should masq between.
Does somebody have allready experience with TV-Cable. What about security etc.
Security is not different from any other type of connection.
