The modem acts as a bridge. All I have to do is turn it on; it then
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.
Unfortunately, as simple as it is in linux, it doesn't seem to work with
freebsd...
It should have worked with dhclient ed0, but the dhcp server's reply gets
lost somewhere.
