If you're using a ADSL router which you plug your OpenBSD box into via ethernet I see two ways of connecting. Either get your ADSL modem to do the PPPoA connection, or make your OpenBSD box do PPPoE and your ADSL modem to do a bridge connection using ATM. I've posted on the list of how I get my OpenBSD box to do the PPP connection (last month if you look though the archives for "PPPoA"). I may as well turn last months email into html since it seems to be a common question and there's little on the subject using Google. Dan
