Anything special involved? (Just DSL, not the voip.) Which one keeps the 
default IP address when they both want the same one?

Was working on this a few weeks ago and had to put it on the back burner. 
Lost a computer, three NIC's, and a switch to lightning. Even one of the 
four ports on the brand new DSL box! (Think this last one may be related to 
the new problem below) Also lost TVs both here and next door.... Not a 
direct strike, but close enough my daughter got burned by her mouse.

Between limited time with the new job and being a total zombie from third 
shift, it took me an embarrassingly long time to get back (mostly) to where 
I was. Current (remaining?) problem is weird intermittent DNS issues that 
only effect *some* computers. Been pulling my hair out over this one for a 
few days, error message is too generic to be of any use as a search string.

Smoothwall as a central point may eliminate all the DNS issues. Worked great 
with a modem for over a year. Had come to the conclusion a few weeks ago 
that I needed to reinstall with the correct hardware. May not have needed to 
originally, but after mucking with it for several days pretty sure I do 
now:-(
