Get some sleep. OP put the modem into bridged mode; it shouldn't be assigning IP address in bridged mode because IP addresses are layer 3 stuff, and bridged mode is layer 2. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum

I meant that towards the comment of him not caring if the modem did the PPPOE work thinking perhaps he tried that method already. Now that I've re-read it, I see my comment is still wrong. Next time I'll try to stop myself from posting when I'm that tired. :P
