[Wylug-help] ADSL interfaces for Linux

Looks like I'm going to be moving away from the wonders of NTL cable
service and to the unimagined horrors of BT ADSL.

Have people got any recommendations - or references to commentries on -
ADSL connectivity for use with Linux.

I specifically require that the Linux box is directly on the internet
and not NATed off from it - so that means it either needs a USB type
modem (which ones work reliably?), or a ethernet ADSL box which provides
a bridged or eoppp type link rather than a NATed network.   Only one box
needs to connect to the ADSL (since that box is going to be the gateway
for anything else).

Cheers
	Nigel.
