Can't help with dhcp. I _think_ I'm using dhcp-client these days :-) I
used to use pump but, even though it worked, I was warned it was broken.
Either way, they were plug & play.
However, I'd warn you to be _very_ careful with your network setup. ISPs
that tell you you can't connect a home network can't possibly tell that
you have one if you set it up correctly, but if they sniff an open port
to a web, FTP, or SMTP server they'll cut you off in a moment.
