It doesn't work as a stand alone for a ADSL modum. There a couple of ports avalible for ADSL modums. (pptpclient is one) But is feel its better to have something more independed. Can you modum be setup so it connects on its own? I have a PPTP connection over my ADSL modum. I've configured my modum so that it builds the connection and routes the packets though on regular ip connection to my computer. It does take configuring of you FreeBSD box this way. Its proberbly best to go for something in bewain first like setting your modum up to be a nat router. -- Alex Articles based on solutions that I use: http://www.kruijff.org/alex/index.php?dir=docs/FreeBSD/
