    Speaking of DSL. Does Anyone have a suggestion for it in the Naperville
    area?

    I am using PPPoE with mindspring.com. I have had no problems with using
    coyotelinux or roaring penguin on a RedHat 6.2 system. The PPPoE setup
    consists of basically entering your username/password and not much else.
    Roaring penguin is designed very well and a must have for PPPoE.
