Re: ISP connectivity Q

Yes, there should be plenty of documentation about setting up proxy 
servers (including squid) on a Linux box.  Which Linux distro are you 
using ? If you have squid installed and you installed the documentation 
then it should already be on your system. It's usually located in 
"/usr/doc/squid.....".  Also check your "Net3, PPP, and Networking" 
howto's. These are often located in "/usr/doc/Howto" on you're system. 
They can also be found on line. You should be able to find some info 
regarding how to fine tune your connection for maximal performance.
