Based on that, would you recommend the (ack!) $6.95/mo. for another IP
(@Home through Cox New Orleans), or bite the bullet and spend ~$80 for a
broadband router that does DHCP/firewall.  There is already a Win98 peecee
connected and working with the cable modem and I just got my X-surf card, so
of course I'm eager to get the Amiga onto the fatter pipe.  :)
