Now I am using PPoE because I suceeded to change setting on the modem (using M$ Explorer, I don't know why but Save and Reboot doesn't work in Firefox!!!).
I've configured several Dlink (and other) devices using Mozilla/Seamonkey/Firefox/Konquerer without problems, going back to my aged dsl-300 - which IS a modem.
I don't dispute your problem, but it's not typical. <>
It is funny what happened because I changed my old modem (that had standard setting from my ISP, using PPoE) to an ADSL2+ modem (D-link I mean) and I thought that unplugging the old one and plugging the new one should make system works with no break, but it was not true!!!....I guess that also many Windows users shoul kill the Internet connection created and let the modem manage connection!!!! As usual many useless pages on the manual, but no word about PPoE, bridging etc.....
If you'd set it straight to bridging, it would almost certainly have been a drop-in replacement, with nothing to change.
Is your system working to your satisfaction now? I don't think I've seen a solution to the original question, but if you're happy with how it's working now, ....
