The Netopia SDSL routers are pretty sweet - do NAT and DHCP internally, and are easy to configure. The 7000 series has a built in CSU/DSU and plugs directly into the DSL line, obviating the need for any other CPE. If I ever get my DSL line :) I'm going to get a Netopia. I know Northpoint specs these for their customers. I know there are also a number of other DSL providers that recommend Netopia. -- ** To all who asked: The Chow now has a good home!
