The current version of their service doesn't use PPPoA; it's more like 
routed Ethernet, thus gaining you precious bits of bandwidth at the cost 
of not being able to use any old CPE. As it goes, I've found the device 
to be functional and stable.

Word on the street is that there is a PPPoA-type service on the way, 
which will enable you to have a laggier and slower service more akin to 
"ADSL-1", with wider hardware compatibility.
