I set up a PPPoE firewall with Windows clients on the backside for an office
32 days ago (with help from the folks here and some other links, thanks) and
so far it has only had 1 reconnect. Thats a lot better than our offices that
use Cable connections. Since it is a remote office I also set it up to
e-mail me the new ip # whenever it changes, for monitoring/support purposes.
Regards, John.
