Actually, that requirement is because they, like the Comcast's of the world,
like to visit your abode, install your service, and then install customized
browser software on your PC that ties your browser into their world by
default as soon as you fire up the browser.
I'm running my cable modem in front of a Cisco 2621 router, Linux servers
and laptop behind it, and no one is the wiser.

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.
