Re: Anyone hosted a web site using IDSL?

Nathan,


        Look at the site http://www.dyndns.org  if you use a ADSL or Cable
Modem that has SNMP
capability you can trap the IP assignment and update your DNS real time to
keep your site up
even when you have a Dynamic IP.  I use an Efficent Networks 5660 and have
had great
luck over the last year...  PS: The 128 upstream is much better on DSL than
Cable modem rates..
