This is the whole point of this: http://accoom.kd85.com/ Wim, Claudio or Andre Oppermann (FreeBSD dude) may be able to shed more light. Claudio committed a driver 2 weeks ago (musycc). Alternatively, you can take a pair of SDSL modems and run them back-to-back. This will hand off Ethernet at either end. The modems are relatively cheap on Ebay. There is a fair amount of info on the web about this type of setup if you google around. --Jason
