I too use Eclipse ADSL. They gave me 5 static IP address. I run primary
DNS for several hosts at my home. I brought one of the Alcatel ADSL
routers not the blue stingray thingy. I've had no real problems.

Eclipse are about £24 a month for a 512kb/128kb line

I use www.eclipse.net.uk the important thing that they do is REVERSE
DNS, I do the forward DNS  master config from my own box (ie complete
control) & somewhere else (with very good connectivity) that the rest of
the world sees as primary. Do ask whatever ISP if they do the reverse
dns since they control the IP addresses so they do the reverse bit.

I have had very few probs with my alcatel blue 'ray'/fish.
