The concern for PPPOE is wether client sessions will re-establish
automatically after disconnects of the link.
For example, if a Pre-n BElkin router is used for a end user link, and I did
connect there service, for example by rebooting a trango AP at the cell site

How did connecting a laptop circumvent how they access the Internet? Sounds to me like the government entity does not restrict access to the Internet, they restrict what a PC can get to on the PC. Seems like a bad approach. How about a good ole proxy server that requires authentication to

If that doesn't work I can get you the name and number for who to ask here.
I'm pretty sure it's done via some kind of security server. Nothing so
complicated as pppoe.

PPPoE will break things like printers. I would use a HotSpot style
authentication and enable only the known machines. All other machines
are sent to a login page or are simply firewalled and prevented from
doing anything. HotSpot and PPPoE require that you have a radius

I do not really understand what you are trying to accomplish but I do PPPoE
for my network. I have used it in a few other cases. It is fairly easy to

and file sharing leap to mind). Those could be worked around with a
