Here's a really big tip connecting your router to SBC DSL without the
crappy and viral Windows software CD:

Your initial router connect configuration is:
    PPPoE
    userid [e-mail suppressed]
    password "sbcyahooreg"

Surf to http://support.sbcglobal.net/register with IE (Firefox didn't
work for me, but you may have better luck). When you're all done,
change the router to your new sbcglobal.net email address and password.
All done!

Switching to SBC DSL Pro from Comcast saved me $17/mo.
