I am not sure if the DHCP server is there. I use Bell's Sympatico
(Canada) DSL service which works through usual telephone line. The
software they provided woks fine and I cheked the windows IP config
and the result is

DNS suffix: sympatico.ca
IP 192.168.2.2
subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.2.1

I am going to set the same settings now in FC2. I will let you know the result.
