Hopefully DSL will get hooked up first. I'm still quite a ways out from that. Last week I installed a Netgear router that includes a wireless access point and four ports for wired connections. Last night I hooked up my new Windows 2003 server to it. I have not had any luck connecting at getting it to serve up web pages. So, I need to get that working first.

Once that's done, I'll be installing a Linux box for my mail server. When that's working properly, then I'll call Qwest to get the DSL connected.

I could just stick with Comcast, but they want $150/mo for static IP and web hosting abilities. I can do DSL for about 1/3 to 1/2 that.
