@VooDoo:

Does your proposed provider use static ip-adresses or are they assigned via dhcp? Unless they use some sub-standard as PPP over ethernet (PPPoE) ofcourse.

@VooDoo:

Yep, no problem at all. Under the configuration for the interface for your network-card do the following:
1. select "DHCP" for "IP type", "Netmask type" and "Gateway type".
2. Under the interface "TCP/IP-settings", select "add" for "Get dynamic DNS servers".

You can ofcourse also use MiamiInit to get up and running, but that is up to you.

@VooDoo:

Is the Amiga the only computer you intend to give internet access?
