I expect your "modem" is actually a router, and that you can just turn
your Linux firewall off. The router performs firewall and NAT functions
that are perfectly adequate for most people.

no...when I say modem,I mean modem, even if can start connection by itself...
What is funny is that it has a DHCP server even if it has just a
single Ethernet port  :-)
I have a so-called modem, but it really is a router. Like yours, it has
a single ethernet port. Mine's an iconnect 622, and it does pppoe,
pppoa, dhcp, dns relay and some other stuff. However, I set it to
bridging mode and do the pppoe myself.

If you want to persuade me it's a modem, better name it;-)

mine is a D-link 320T. I still assume that is a modem, I do not see
any firewall or DNS stuff.
But I forgot that any Save and reboot option (button) with this series
of D-link (same for wireless router) is not working if you connect by
Firefox (at least in Linux) but it is o.k. by Windows Explorer (so I
had to recconnect a Windows laptop to save settings and reboot modem):
I assumed to have settings for Ppoe but it was not true!!! Tnx for
help

I can't find it at dlink.com, can you?
