You are correct Rahul. In theory, I do want my Router to be the PPPoE
client, and have the PC's in my LAN travel through it. I currently have a
1601 and a 1604 router.

Rizzo,
As I mentioned you earlier I just assumed your PC is PPPoE client, from
the following statement looks like you want router to be PPPoE client. Could
please tell which is this series of router?
thanks
rahul.
