Hi:

I am a bit confused as to what exactly I am trying to do - or that is how the protocols layers and stuff. My current setup is like this:

            10.0.0/24          192.168.0/24      static IP
Wireless ))--- AP --- FreeBSD -------------- DSL ------------- Internet
                      many-1                 1-1
                       NAT                   NAT

I'd like to have the 192.168.0/24 disappear from the network topology, and have the routable static ip right on my FreeBSD box. The DSL box is configured with PPPoE:

WAN Connection Type     PPPOE
Internet IP address     85.48.194.xxx
Subnet Mask             255.0.0.0
ISP Gateway Address     172.31.255.254
Primary DNS             192.168.0.1

For some bizare reason the ISP gateway is on a private LAN segment and the mask doesn't include my assigned static IP - but maybe that's not a problem?

I can't figure out which protocol layers which in the internet connection setup.

- I have to configure PPPoE on the FreeBSD box?
- The 192.168.0/24 will not exactly disappear, but rather be like a "dead end" that only works for communication with the router - which has a web interface for configuration?
- And the external interface will be a ppp0, not vr0 as currently?

The DSL router in question is a Thomson Speedtouch 546v6.

Any hints, howtos or other on how to do this?

Thanks, Erik
