Thanks for all your helpful comments. I hadn't thought too much about the cost of the software - so I figured since I already had a Mystic with an LC network card, I could find a used comm slot card for much less than the cost of a router. I won't be leaving this on 24-7 - I just got a NeXTstation which I don't think can do DHCP. I figured this would be the easiest way to get it on the net over DSL whenever I need to.
