<div>Our company demoed a Westell 6100.. The unit we had here did the PPPoE right on the modem and passed off 192.168.X.X ip's..</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you have the password to the unit you could try letting it do the PPPoE and still pass the public IP to your linux router.. Theres a checkbox for the IP passthru in one of the screens, I forget exactally how it's worded in the menus..
