I did see that. But you can use the Viking as a layer-2 device, setting up your PPPoE session from the host computer, thereby shielding the IP stack in the Viking from the interweb. That's exactly how I used to use it (and how I'm using my ISP's VDSL2 modem which is also capable of being a router) Taking the OP's words literally: you are right that the Viking can act as a router (which might disqualify it) but it doesn't have to be (which might make it acceptable). I thought I'd leave that up to the OP's judgment. > For the "pure adsl modem card" it's going to be something like a > Solos (if you can find a source, as they are EOL) or S518 (sangoma's > site doesn't say they are EOL, though the OS support list doesn't > include anything recent, so may need some fiddling for current > systems, and they're adsl1 only).
