Yes, at last I am among the broadband elite. I was surprised at how straightforward the ADSL self-install was, and now I can have tuxmail, eggdrop and streaming internet radio running on my DreamBox satellite receiver. So far, so good. I’m using Esat BT BTW.

I’m back int he market looking for something along the lines of 512/256, static IP.
Ideally Esat BT Business, but for less moolah
If you haven’t already, setup a squid proxy on a decent box. Makes life easier.
Ah, but best of all, I now have a browser on my DreamBox. It’s based on the Links browser, and it’s handy for checking stuff during ad breaks on TV
