[Discussion] Where to get started, , ,

[John K]

My ISP is dragging me kicking and screaming into the present - I'm having to
get a higher speed line and need to move on from my dial-up access.
  Can anybody suggest an entry point so I can figure out what changes I'll have
to make to my eCS 1.2's TCP/IP settings in order to connect to my new DSL line
(Westell model 6100 modem, std ethernet card)? . . . or perhaps a how-to post
that's out there somewhere that gives some directions.  Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
John K
