Hello World!
I have a telephone service provider because I have a need to be connected, connected to the rest of the world, connected to work. For the same reason, I have an internet connection. Let them sell us the @WORK package based on service level agreements and such. Let them not dictate which internet standard protocals I can use on an internet connection.
I just got off the phone with a Comcast rep that said any VPN connection for work purposes is forbidden. When I enquired about peer to peer VPN connections, he said that would not be allowed either.
They want to charge me 2-3 times more for something which by definition is a part of "full internet access".
They advertised the home network starter kit which does not include a NAT based router. And they provided instruction to rent/lease additional IP addresses.

Hail @HOMO the feuror!
Good point, but using AOL a.k.a. "the internet for Dummies" ove a broadband connection seems like an oxymoron.
where are you located and who is the DSL provider?
