    That is a great idea, unfortunately I don't know where to find another
    location for this. I actually planned on getting a separate cable
    line. I already have cable coming in so I'm not sure if they can give
    me "another" line (do you know if they can do this?) Also, I may
    just get a dsl line and do it that way...probably have the server on
    cable and have Brighthouse increase my upload speed and have my
    personal network on the dsl line (I don't consider dsl as being as
    reliable as cable in my area, I've had many issues with it in past).
