It also does nat, dhcp+dns, so we left it at that. If you have a 4-port, there's nothing for PPPoe to connect to, but you'd already have worked that out. Telstra's implementation of PPPoE is fussy and required a modification for before RELEASE_4.2. Very complete details are available at http://logicsquad.net/freebsd/PPPoE-how-to.html, although I never had to use them, as mentioned earlier.
