if i can have a block of 8 ip addresses (6 useable) from an isp...
what do i need at my end to handle that?
is the routing for the subnet handled by the isp and therefore i would only need a layer two device i.e. a hub or a switch...plug that into the modem and hey presto?
or - do i need a router at my end to handle the routing of the subnet they allocate me?
cheers.
