Static. Dont think they like Dynamic Addresses. Harder to track stuff
with a dynamic address. Harder to offer DNS toys with a dynamic address
too...

I know this is off-topic but do TC normally configure a static IP
address or dynamic?
Anyone know what would it take to get a static address from them?

It is *normally* terminated as ethernet. They will need a power socket
as in one of the boxes they install is a media converter. You simply
need your machine to be natting to share it over your network. Also
the ip they are providing you may be required to configure your
interface.

Is anyone on cable that can tell me what is required?
I know they supply a modem, what do I need to plug that in to?
Can I put it directly into the back of a debian machine? What
software
do I need install?
Then I can just share it on the wireless and other net cards.
TIA
Cheers Don
