I reckon I will get an alcatel speedtouch USB thingy, I should be able 
to route/firewall that myself and it comes with two splitters.  I found 
out that it uses pppd to connect so I should be able to do all my 
firewalling etc.

Does anyone know of any cheap suppliers?  It is £136 including Vat and
delivery  for the Speed Touch USB - Self Install Pack (Includes Two DSL 
Filters).
