Has anyone used an external ISDN modem with Gentoo? I see there are a
couple articles about setting up ISDN but they seem to be for internal
cards. This device uses USB, ethernet, or serial. Just wondering if
it might be a big task or not.

I used a 3com ISDN modem for net and voice for a while. It had an ethernet

I don't understand why 2 routers. Maybe I'm missing something. Unless you have
2 networks that need to be separate only one is needed. If you have a wireless
