I have IDSL from Ibsnetorks (www.ibsnetworks.com).  It took them almost a
year to get it installed, but now that I have it, I love it!  I bought a
LinkSys Cable/DSL Router which is a router/switch/hub fun thing.  It has a
nifty web interface to set it up, and you can get it in 1,2, and 4 port
variants.  It supports DHCP for easy configuration of clients, and PPPoE if
you have verizon dsl.  Setting it up was uber easy.  It has port forwarding
and customizable routing tables as well, which is quite handy.  I wike it.
