Well, my ISP used to give me a "live" IP and now I get a non-routeable IP in 
the 192.168.x.y range. :(

I must be missing something.  Why do you need PPPoE on the modem to SSH into 
your Linux box?  Isn't PPPoE usually used to establish the WAN connection from 
home to the ISP?  If you're just plain 'ol DHCP on the WAN interface now, can't 
you just forward port 22 to the Linux machine?

Does your new router at home have the capability to act as a VPN server?

Ok...some of y'all may recall I ordered an upgrade to my DSL last week. Well, 
Monday morning, everything was working fine, but yesterday after I got to work, 
I was unable to SSH to my linux box at home and when I got home, my DSL wasn't 
working. So I called tech support and they were no help. Finally they sent out 
a technician yesterday and upgraded my modem (thinking that was the issue since 
my speed had doubled, maybe the modem couldn't handle the upgrade.) I got home, 
and the modem was connected, but I still couldn't get online, even with the 
brand new router I bought yesterday. So I called up Windstream (my ISP) tech 
support again and went over the router configs with them. That's when I 
discovered they stopped using PPPOE on the modems.
Wondering how long this has been going on and why they didn't tell me! *sigh* 
Now I've got to figure out a way to connect back to my LAN at home...strictly 
for testing purposes, of course. :)
