If we can get config instructions for all the popular NAS boxes like Ascend, Livingston, USR etc. posted to a web page somewher then we can get the word out to a lot of ISP's via the 7 or 8 ISP mailing lists, Boardwatch magazine and USENET. But for the benefit of those maginally clueful people out there we need to have some fairly explicit instructions. I know ra.net has an ISP section on their WWW server and it wouldn't hurt to point more ISP's at www.ra.net anyway.
