FYI, I've helped two people in the last month install AT&T DSL, and it seems they have changed their setup a little. They have a new type of modem that retains its own PPPoE username/password and has its own web interface. From a browser you go to 192.168.1.254 and there you enter the PPPoE username and password--no longer is the PC software (or router) responsible for passing that to the modem. That may be good news for those installing from Linux...
