i've found great success using rp-pppoe from www.roaringpenguin.com i have an AMD that i use as a firewall/router and rp-pppoe has worked great for me every time. read the documentation on the roaringpenguin site about how to set it up. it's really simple. good luck and i hope this at least helps! -jeff p.s. send me email if you need help with it! i'd be glad to give you a hand! jmr71769@earthlink.net
