[G4] Bellsouth DSL

[Johns Maillist]

I just finished hooking up a new clients home network, using the 2wire 
and Bell's DSL.
I did have some problems at first, but more because the client also had 
a LinkSys WRS54G wireless router (he did not need it, but did not know 
before he called me)
The Powerbook is wireless to the Linksys, the G4 MDD is plugged into 
the Linksys, and the LinkSys is wired into the 2wire.
There was a problem getting the IP from the system, since both routers 
were trying to perform as a DHCP server.
But, it al worked out, including sharing the G4's laser printer.
