I'm using the free DynDNS dynamic hosting service. Once I signed up there for the free account, I configured the domain name using one of the free available domain suffixes they had available. For the dynamic DNS updates, my WRT54G router has built-in support for sending updates to DynDNS when my IP changes.

My connection at home is just your standard Comcast cable internet connection. IIRC, my plan was for 8 Mbps downloads and I believe it's 768 kbps uploads, but don't quote me on that.
