I know this is OT but does your Speedstream "fall down" from time to time?
 I mean need to be hard powered or logged back into the network?We're using a 
5861 which we got from SBC when we set up the connection
some years ago and it just seems to flak occasionally.

To add an on-topic here I would suggest looking at a cheap PC with two
network cards and downloading Smoothwall (http://www.smoothwall.org). 
It's pretty simple to install and it can easily sit between any two points
and act as a good firewall.  You're going to have to learn how to open up
a couple of ports on it but that's a given if you're running any mail
server and a firewall of any type.
