[lug] Qwest ADSL

Larry,
yes, it works, the IP number change on the 675 eth0 was the fix for me.
What bothers me a little is the ongoing "who has 10.0.0.2++ tell 10.0.0.1".
I have not figured yet, how to stop it.
Also, I am not going to use dhcp, that's unessential - there is only going 
to be the firewall after the router and that can be static IP.

I hope it works for you too.
