Actually, this is not a "dumb" modem. It is officially (supported by
Bezeq) router. it's default configuration is a PPPoE modem, but it is a
router.
You can download the configuration guide from here:
http://www.netguru.co.il/files/manuals/eci/ECI_ROUTER_ADSL_270_400.pdf
(sorry boys and girls, but it's in Hebrew)

Warning: when configured as a router, there are 3 known bugs:

1) ports 6667-6668 (IRC) are blocked - you can't use IRC
2) port 1720 is blocked - H.323 protocol (Netmeeting anyone ?) won't
work
3) Passwords containing some special characters are not handled
correctly (at least with Netvision). For example: "+" is passed to
Radius server as "#". One of 9 7 4 5 digits in digits-only passwords are
not handled correctly. The resolution is to use only English letters
(capitals are OK)

ECI are aware of the bugs and have promised to release a firmware
update, which is supposed to resolve the issues, in a week. Currently
the fixed firmware is tested in their lab.
