What?
I don't see where any IP addresses are lost using an external ADSL modem
that uses an ethernet interface. Ethernet packets are written rawly by
PPPoE to the NIC which is plugged into the modem with a patch cable.
PPPoA would probably have less overhead but it'd be more expensive and
I don't think there's any support for it in Linux at this stage.
