Fantastic, that's exactly what I needed, Thanks!

SDSL/SHDSL/gSHDSL equipment are not easily changed from one vendor/DSLAM to the next, so you should rather setup your modems in bridge mode instead of trying to replace them.

 

This config will change the router into bridge mode.

Before you start you might want to backup your old config and possible any pppoe/pppoa username/pass that you need for the pfsense config. You will also need config password and enable password for the router.

Either that or you can ask your tech rep to send you a modem based on this config (a smaller ISP will most likely help you do this, a big one will most likely not).

I currently have 2 Cisco 828's with SDSL connections
plugged into separate interfaces on one of my PfSense
boxes. The external IP's are nat'd by the cisco, then
nat'd again by pfSense, and it's just a lot clunkier
to work out any issues than I'd like. Does anyone know
of a supported card or external bridging modem that I
can use with pfSense to pass the external IP's directly
to the pfSense box without having to use the cisco's
redirection?
