But you've got an ATM PVC to them, haven't you? This is a completely different setup. Imagine you haven't got a DSL modem, but just an RJ45 plug in the wall which leads into a stupid cloud of L2 Ethernet switches, and you still talk PPPoE to your ISP. AFAICS, this is the kind of network setup the OP is talking about.
