If the DSL modem they provide connects through an ethernet port then you should have no problems. My modem handles all the connection stuff and even has an integrated firewall. Ironically it is probably running on linux itself.


If it is, and they're not giving you the source code for what they're
doing, then they're breaking the GPL.  If this is the case, they should
be running one of the BSDs.

Probably!
I think that may be the scenario with a few situations - traffic lights,
for example, are supposed to be running on FOSS for the stability factor.
