Joe, so basically I'm going to make up a mac-address and pass that along to the Telco correct?
Also currently im using a mac address on this router with RBE dsl connections and the new DSL's getting cut over to this ATM are PPPOE, I read somewhere on cisco that I should use a different mac-address for the PPPOE under a bba-group. So I should just be able to make one up and pass that along to them?
