Yep there will be a ADSL hub when (if) I get that connection. and
as It will be SO simple, I will just resurrect the old 486 under my
bed to act as a router/firewall and start using ip-masquerading
(could someone tell me the accual benefits / problems of using it,
all that I know is that it [tries to] hides the ip of your router, am I
right?)
