Ah, ok, dsl. I had dsl from Bell Canada for a while, but forget the details now.
Bell Canada did not use MAC, but rather a small "dial up" program that contained the user name and password. It acted like a mini dial up, but of course simply called up the connection on the dsl line, wich, if I recall correctly timed out automatically if not used and had to be reconnected when the equipment was rebooted.
But one thing, From time to time IE6 refuses to access my LinkSys router setup pages. Even putting in the router's IP in "trusted sites" doesn't work right now on 2 of my WinXP pc's. But, Mozilla always works. Netscape and Phoenix also work, but I've settled on Mozilla for getting around the recalictrant IE 6. Never been able to figure out why.
