Alan, I do a static IP on a std voice grade line, it just costs a few dollars 
more a month. I should soon be playing with a Maximus line for callers via 
the net, just for fun on one of the two lines. I am considering making a 
separate box just for the internet link though, don't want to hog my 
resources on one machine so much.
Adios for now,
