the person I got at tech service has never heard of bridging 
and has been there for 5 yrs and says that if they supported 
it, that she'd know about it and was adamant that I wasn't 
going to be getting bridging with them. She said I had dhcp 
service and not pppOE service. I asked her what difference 
that would make, and she gave me the same speil (ie we don't 
support it).

The modem box says "Combo NAT PPPOE". Do you get bridging 
with pppOE? Is this what I'm looking for?
