Mark,

 

If you can wait the month (or so) until I move, I’ll have an Alcatel green USB modem going spare…

OK - that's not a bad idea. Is there a particular USB thing you recommend?

You need an ADSL modem and additionally a router.

minus broadcast, minus router).

Sounds like someone's looking at Eclipse ;)

> I assume that the ADSL line will plug into the "router". The router's
ethernet port will be crossover-d into the firewall.

That's one way - but you lose an Ethernet port...
Another possible way is to use an ADSL modem presenting USB - that way it
becomes easier to setup RED (USB), ORANGE & GREEN zones (Ethernet).
Particularly important if you have a VIA board with only one PCI slot.

With only the modem, the firewall does NAT/pinholing etc and a combined ADSL
modem/router becomes redundant as you have to run it in bridged mode (well,
you do with the Asus I have).

> How sophisticated is IPCop???

> I want quite a lot of translations / hiding from different zones into
others?

I'm sure it can handle it...

> What router do I want?

How much do you want to spend ;)
