Got a Broadband Video Phone from overseas.
Unfortunately, it only supports PPPoE....
It can't be behind firewall & NAT, and must get an IP directly
from ISP thru a broadband modem with RJ45 connector.
Currently there's a ADSL router & a 802.11b router,
which obvious wound't work at all since it can't use NAT!!!
Couldn't think of a way to get it going at all...
Can anyone think of any solutions?

Cheers
Kach

I think Telstra Cable uses PPPoE.

If you can see the black band around the skytower from your roof
consider the Wired Country service through ihug. Uses PPPoE.
Ihug supply up to 3 (dynamic) ip addresses to each user.
1 for network, 1 for their phone service (if you use it) and one other
for something else!
