[Herefordshire] Broadband connection.

[Malcolm Herbert]

my rural exchanges in South Herefordshire is due for broadband summer
2005 btw. (my delivery date is 10am, 28 July 2005). Likely that many
speeds will be limited to 256 or 512kbps

Modems with Linux are supported, but can take a lot fiddling with.
Better option is to get a route (recommend the Zyxel Prestige)
especially if you have a home network. Supports NAT, Bridging etc
