Due to aB's MAC NAT functionallity pppoe will NOT work with it. So only way to make PPPoE work with sB equipment is either today use the older firmware (0.09.10 which comes with 1.43) or use a aP in client bridge mode that does NOT do MAC NATing.
OR... For sB to allow the aB to be a REAL bridge and not do MAC NATing.
