You seem to have bitten by the Y2K bug. I didn't know
it was the year 100.

Anyway, I assume DSL is similar to cable modems.
Stick a box in as a masquerade/firewall and turn it
on, point your other systems at it, and you're set.
That's what I'm doing with my cable modem anyway.

What advantage is there to PPPOE?
