Honestly I have no clue why its not working, it should be simple, but it isnt.. Here is what the arp cache shows and the routing table (and its ed0, not de0, my mistake in original message). arp: (after doing the arp -s command) modem (10.0.0.1) at 00:0b:23:2a:b0:c4 on ed0 permanent [ethernet] this looks right doesnt it? route: default mydslgateway UGS 0 8173 tun0 10/24 link#1 UC 0 0 ed0 modem 00:0b:23:2a:b0:c4 UHLS 0 4 ed0 => 10.0.0.1/32 link#1 UCS 0 0 ed0 no idea here? 3 for ed0? is that right? note, ed0 is also creating the tun0 device (pppoe), but that was never a problem in linux. Im just confused. :( Its not a big deal, as its only my dsl line stats, but still confused why it aint working For the record, http://www.broadbandreports.com/faq/9693 is the page on how you access the line stats, and the MAC part is required for my modem.
