Re: Help with Internet Access

alternately, just dispose of it an get another device with pppoe with some
additional capabilities.

In reality though, you can stay with what you have - ISA will do the job -
so long as it's properly configured. It will be a bit busier than it might
be with a simple nat device in front of it - only allowing traffic on the
ports you need.

PPPoE emulates a 'dialup' connection - and uses software tricks when on the
server. You're far better having SBS believe it has a full time broadband
connection, and let an external device keep the connection alive.
