Just to add my $0.02 worth, and hopefully not go too far off-topic, set up
a Linux box to connect to Optus, and use it as a "firewall" for the other
machines on the network... They'll never know... Same as using one of
those Intel internet sharing devices - it's a DHCP server for your network,
but presents ONE IP address to to world...
Of course, if what I was told by Optus when installing our frame relay was
true, then you just have to make sure that your UPSTREAM is < 13k/sec
(apparently alarms sound over that level - under is fine). I'll attempt to
verify this information sometime this week.
