===( Obsolete )For a Be PPPoA Line===
Most A&A BE lines from around December 2010 are PPPoA - they use the same VPI/VCI as BT (0/38).
 
You will need to use a Draytek Vigour 120, or similar device, which can provide true PPPoA <-> PPPoE bridging. The ZyXEL P660R-D1 won't do this. Please read the link: &nbsp;http://www.firebrick.co.uk/fb2700/pppoe.php
 
Also make a note of the LAN address, as you'll set a subnet on the FireBrick below so that you can still access the ZyXEL from your LAN.
As the ZyXEL is not doing any PPP in bridge mode, the 'Internet' LED will not light up, the DSL light will still indicate sync though.
 
Because of a quirk in the way these lines are configured by Be, PPPoEoA (bridge mode on the ZyXEL) does in fact work. However, it is an unsupported configuration. It will almost certainly work for the lifetime of the service, but if it does ever break Be will not fix it.
