I can't answer any of the other stuff, but my understanding is that
regardless of the OS, you'll still need the firmware download to the
modem. I use a Linux firewall (IPCop) on my home LAN and a Speedtouch
modem. Part of the setup of IPCop for the Alcatel stingray is the upload
of mgmt.o (one of several names) to the firewall so it is able to
control the download to the modem on reinitialisation.

Compliments of the season,
