  I have a combined ADSL modem/router that logs on and coverts ADSL into
ethernet.  The only difference from ordinary LANs is that I have to run
with MTU 1454.  The ifconfig command gives output like...

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0F:EA:64:77:57
      inet addr:192.168.123.252  Bcast:192.168.123.255  Mask:255.255.255.248
      UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1454 Metric:1

  I have no ADSL support compiled in.  Instead, my eth0 connects to the
ADSL modem/router.  Is your system possibly set up like that?
