What's your problem with a grey (= NATed) IP address?
The only PPPoE driver for DOS is PEPA
(), but it is intended for "setting up
a low cost Internet access router with standard PC hardware".

Are you talking about (A)DSL?
I recommend getting a NAT-router like, e.g., Linksys WRT54GL. I run a
custom firmware called "DD-WRT", which is very stable.

My modem (without WiFi support) currently serve as bridge. Thanks for
that I have not grey IP address. The downside: I need PPPoE driver.

It is widespread here in CIS.

Because they think it allows then to oversubscribe their 
infrastructure, as they count on only a part of their users actually 
being "always on" by setting an automatic reconnect...

"the pox on PPPoE"... >:-}

I just got a Zoom modem that is also a router which doesn't have
wireless, very hard to come by these days.  Such a device, 
depending on your needs, can take care of PPPoE for you and you 
should be able to hook to it with a Freedos system no problem.
Barring this, an alternative might be to support PPPoE from a 
Linux based server.  Any idea why PPPoE is being pushed by 
phone companies?
