Is there any way to convert the USB interface provided by the basic ADSL
service to 10BaseT ethernet as I am running a unix box that does not
have a USB port and I do not want to have to pay for the more expensive
service.

Can the provided adaptor/modem be junked and a adsl to 10BaseT
bridge/router be used in its place?

Also does anyone know how to connect a unix box to this service, I'm
running Solaris 7

Simon.

You will want to pay for the more expensive service since the cheapest
ADSL will probably end up slower than v.90.
