The problem – you want to get broadband and you want to share this connection with other machines in the house as easily as possible. (Even if you don’t currently want to share the connection it makes sense to buy the correct kit as its not very much more expensive.)
(ADSL / DSL, its all the [...]

Upgraded the firmware on my DSL router last night. Since then my blogging hasn’t been working. As Blogger uses PASV FTP I assumed that the new firmware didn’t support it. That’d be odd I thought.
Finally tracked down the problem.

I downloaded the latest Knoppix Live CD over the weekend. This is a Linux system that comes on a CD, and runs entirely on the CD so doesn’t require any hard drive activity; for a temporary play with Linux this makes it ideal. (In the sake of fairness, other Live CD installations are available).
