>From my experience - you can connect it to your "uplink" connection in your hub
- but it seems that you cannot connect. Don't know exactly why...
Basically you should do is:
1. Connect directly your ADSL modem to a cheap network card (a 100 Base T
Realtek 8139 chip based card costs 15$) - and put it as 10.200.1.1 - and the
rest of your network as 192.168.x.x
2. Don't forget after the connection to add "route add default ppp0" - or it
won't route the data :)
3. If you're planning on a permanent connection - then write a small script
which will ping some sites, and update your DNS if you got dynamic IP..
