Greetings,

I've been running RH Linux with RR for over 2 years now with no special 
requirements.  I've got an ethernet connected cablemodem so all I need 
is a NIC in my computer to talk to the cablemodem.  Don't know what 
you'll need to do if you get a USB-connected cablemodem (do they make 
such beasts?)
