Tell AT&T to go and fsck themselves.

Order DSL service from Speakeasy -- http://www.speakeasy.net/home/lineshare/

You'll get real Internet access, with a static IP address, and not some 
half-baked PPPoE, or DHCP crap you'll get from AT&T and other make-believe 
Internet providers.

They'll give you an IP address, netmask, and DNS settings.  Plug that in 
when you're installing FC5, and you're done.

With a static IP address you'll be able to run your own web and mail server, 
something that you won't be able to do with telco toy DSL service.
