[TriLUG] OT: DSL for SOHO in Chapel Hill

Ok.  So, here's the $50 question...

How do you pipe the /29 into customer premises?  Me thinks we're talking
about a real router instead of a Linksys that sniffs out a single IP from
the ISP.

If I were to hang a switch on the Ethernet port of the DSL modem, plug a box
into a port, and assign one of those static IPs, am I on the Internet or no?

A /29 gives you 6 usable IP addresses - one must be used for the gateway, so
that leave 5 for other purposes.  To setup a Domain, you're supposed to give
the Internic two separate IP addresses - One for your Primary DNS, the
Second for you Secondary DNS server.
