I've used Nauticom DSL for like 8 years now without problem.
Nauticom's nice because they don't do anything odd like PPPoE - it's  
just a straight "here's your (static) IP, subnet, gateway, and DNS",  
so getting it to work under Linux is a simple file edit in /etc.

They claim that you need to rent extra IPs to connect extra  
computers, but I've been using a router to IP masquerade for almost  
as long as we've had DSL. You may want to do something similar.


Those filters are like $10, and the ISP gives you a couple. You stick  
them on the phone lines with a phone connected to them, so you don't  
hear the noise from the DSL "modem" (actually a router).
