There's also solos-pci, as used on the Geos.

I mostly use that with PPPoA, rather than PPPoEoA with the pointless MTU
breakage that that implies. But it does work fine with BR2684 with the
MAC address 00:00:01:00:00:00, which is what it ends up with.

Do you actually *need* to set the MAC address on the br2684 link?

Also, why is the br2684ctl package automatically starting br2684ctl at
boot, in the current AA builds? That actually prevents me from bringing
up the device in PPPoA mode. Surely br2684ctl should only be started if
it's actually been *configured*, and then only when the corresponding
network link is brought up?
