Hi Chris and thanks for your reply.
I'm saying that cause some ISPs lock their "IP-offering"
with each client's hardware address (which is defined at first use).

Hi Chris,

I'm saying that cause some ISPs lock their "IP-offering"

synchronizes with the ISP's network (PPPoA). Then I just execute dhcpcd eth0
from the linux machine (connected to the modem) and I'm assigned an IP and a
default gateway in mere seconds.
