Anyone using BellSouth's DSL or Cable service with Linux? I just saw saw where I can get a decent connection for $5.00/mo more than I'm paying for Earthlink dial-up. But their site says Win/Mac - and nothing about Linux! I understand I'll probably have to hook myself up, but - sheesh! - they could at least mention the requirements for a Linux system.
I hate the dag-blamed marketing hype these companies throw out - always ignoring Lunix users!
I'm not on Bell South, but I've never had a problem using my cable modem access, with either OS/2 or Linux, even though the ISP only supports Windows & Mac. If worst comes to worst, get one of those cheap firewall/router boxes, to talk to the ISP.
