Good suggestion, that plugin is for this exact purpose. Of course if Christopher's suggestion works, that is the best and easiest where the stats are retrieved over the PPP connection to the private IP address of the DSL Modem. As Christopher's said, make sure the DSL Modem's IP address is not in your AstLinux internal network(s) range. But, if that doesn't work, the "dsl-ppp-modem" is worth a try. Though I'm not sure how the PPPoE's ethx interface is assigned an IP address to talk with the DSL Modem on the same subnet. That may have to be done via a "/mnt/kd/rc.elocal" script.
