    I'm hoping someone here can answer this question as regards IPs etc.

    I realize this is probably a Windows related issue but I was hoping someone
    here could explain, in terms of networking, what could be occuring..

    When connected via PPPoE, this issue occurs:
    No matter the User/Pass, ipconfig pulls exactly the same IP address along w/
    a 255.255.255.255 subnet.
    The PPPoE connection is a dynamic connection so the IP pulled should never
    be the same.
    Could this be a problem with the DHClient? The reason I ask is that a
    connection is made but no route is able to occur.

    Thanks for any help,
    Charlie
