I've encountered setups (iirc in Denmark?) where the telco terminates their line as an RJ-11 and an RJ-45. You can then plug into that either a router that talks PPPoE on an ethernet port, or directly into NIC in your computer and talk PPPoE there. This is where PPPoE clients like rp-pppoe and their ilk come into play. You can even do (rudimentary) sharing of the ADSL by plumbing it into a hub. Any other client connected to the hub can kick off a PPPoE session. Not many telcos do this these days I think.. --=-Quc5SfE3MYHY1utBJaCq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBGi5HKlcRvFfyds/cRAm3pAJ0T2BnzEBT4Ynb9fQEp+GS5DIjg+ACglvmF WrIIUFHtBFs5Am1zvdg74pc= =ksaV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-Quc5SfE3MYHY1utBJaCq--
