it handles PPPoE by itself, and all you need is to get an ip from it via
dhcp.

On a re-read of what I wrote earlier, it might be a little confusing where I
say you
need static network set up and then instruct on how to do DHCP. Perhaps I

Assuming your ISP does use PPPoE, and you are using the router device

Hi,
I've read the thread completely. It seems clear to me that you have had
networking issues where you've had an IP and then not had an IP. If you
have a fully working TCP/IP V4 stack, then I'm sure you'll see success.
