It worked *perfectly* for me although I've ran into numerous people who've had trouble with it. In all honesty, I think they were simply "newbies" (too impatient, didn't read the docs, etc). The website for the utility is here: http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/ They have a HOW-TO-CONNECT file here: http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/how-to-connect.txt Print it out, read it, and keep it handy !!
