| 1. A broadband connection (a cable or DSL modem) * Static IP address * Dynamic IP address * PPPoE 2. |
=== Broadband Connection === A broadband connection like a cable or DSL modem is required. The broadband connection must either require you to configure a '''static'' IP address or provide one dynamically assigned via '''DHCP'''. If your connection requires PPPoE (as can often be the case with DSL), you'll find the article on ["ADSLPPPoE"] to be a valuable asset. === Hardware === |

Setting up an Ubuntu Wired/Wirless Router
Preface
This article exists due a lack of concise and easily followed information available on the subject of setting up an wired and/or wireless Ubuntu router. It is intended for advanced users who have or would like to set up a dedicated Ubuntu installation acting as a router at home or in their office. The end result is a powerful router that can provide functionality similar to popular products (like, for example, the Linksys WRT54G).
