after 2yrs of having isdn :( my shanty town is live for adsl :D so as ive never used adsl ive also never gotten to know the ins and outs about it.

ok so ive got a couple questions that im sure u guys will have no problems with, if u would be kind enough to help.

1)
I have 2 pc's at home which i want to be able to connect to the net so i know i need a router/hub thing or whatever :p is this 1 here any good?

2)
I will be getting a 512k connection (woot cant wait on 64k atm) the question here is: if i have both pc's connected does it half the connection for both pc's? meaning they connect at 256k each? or will they both connect at 512?

3)
Is there anything i need to worry about or anything i need to do really, just want to make sure i get the most out of what i have.

Thanx in advance for you help

If u do things right.... People won't be sure you've done anything at all......

Your route will distribute 512k to both computers, and if one is using it it will have full bandwidth.
If two are using it, the bandwidth will be spit, totaling up to 512k. The ratio will vary depending ou the requests.
You can ad even two more.
