With a stand alone Series 2, just network it, no phone line needed other then the initial set up which you could always do at a friends. You'd need a USB to Ethernet adapter or USB wireless adapter depending on your networking needs to go with it.

It comes with a $20 CC mail in rebate and a $30 WD mail in rebate.
I doubt switching to a PCI card would make a difference... I'd suggest degrading back to the previous version of Azureus you were using to see if the problem goes away then take it from there.
That's just bizarre, maybe it's different on my network, I've installed a few for friends and neighbors and recently replaced mine and never needed to install software...
Might wanna read the manual again, it's not possible to forward the same port or ports to more then one machine with a Linksys router. Now you can forward different ports to different machines...
That's a load of BS, all they need to do is activate your modem's MAC address in their billing software and it'll be allowed to have an IP the next time it's powered on.
If Comcast handles this like any other call, they won't do crap when they get there til your running a single machine off your cable modem with no router. I actually had them blame my router for an outage I was having when I was sitting watching my cable modem constantly link and unlink, turned...
Yes... the whole purpose of the orange network is to allow that segment to access the internet while being isolated from the green segment. The only thing I'm not sure of is if you can have a seperate IP range for the two adapters...

You can use something like ClarkConnect which is an open source linux distribution configured to do webserving, fileserver, routing and a whole bunch of other things and it's free and doesn't need super duty equipment to run. Your main...
You need to forward both for passive FTP to work. Also, you usually can't connect to your external address from inside your network so try that site out or get a friend to test your connection...
1. I need a router that is stable and can accept allot of connections.
How many is a lot of connections?
2. Cant be too expensive but really good and quality matters. ~$50-60
Most of your run of the mill SOHO routers are this price..
If your on your network, you most likely will only be able to get to it by connecting to the local IP of your server. If you want to verify it can be seen from the web, get a friend to check it out...
One goes to your cable/DSL, the other to your switch. Remember a switch is a seperate device then a router, just most of the SOHO routers out there have a 4 port switch built in.
All you need is a pc with 2 NIC cards and your set, most of the Linux distro's geared for this purpose are very easy to install. I've personally been running ipcop for a few months now, you can find it at ipcop.org. You can also check out smoothwall.org which I ran for about a year and...
You'd get more security out of building a firewall/router for them using something like Linux or BSD, more security options then a SOHO Linksys router.
Your not seeing the hits on ZA cause they are stopping at your router. Snort's not gonna do you much good because again the requests are gonna stop at your router. If you are being attacked they are killing your WAN connection between your router and cable modem. The only way to tell is get a...
Just poking around google I found this software which might work

Again, please read the manual to your router and figure out your DHCP range and post it here. Once you do that we can tell you what IP's are safe to use and how to set it up on your machine.
