Thanks everyone for your comments. I have put an IP Address on my Eth1 which is
my external interface configured with PPPoE and I can ping the modem from the
firewall. I cant access the modem however from the LAN interface which I assume
is because the firewall only allows access to the EXT interface as ppp0 ? Does
this seem correct and if so, can I put an additional firewall rule in user.conf?
Thanks
Mike
