[Gllug] ADSL

[Mark Preston]

Hi All,
I am considering taking the plunge into broadband internet for home use. From 
reading the postings on this list, and consulting the adslguide.org website, 
it appears to me that Plusnet annual subscription self install may be a good 
option. I would be grateful for any advice regarding the pros and cons of 
Plusnet in particular, but also for other possible contenders as well. I am 
hoping to maybe attach a small network (one hardware firewall, one windows 
pc, one Linux pc and a mobile pc). I have two NICs, a 4 unit hub and two 
telephone lines and plenty of ethernet cable as well. So advice on modems and 
other bits may be needed.
	As well as faster surfing, I quite like the idea of possibly being able to 
run an Apache webserver of my own in the future, and also a Zope server. 
Would such a service be capable of this? I note that the Plusnet mentioned 
above provides a single fixed IP address.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Regards from Mark Preston
