This is most simple using a router. 50 bucks from Best Buy or whatever,
and you have none of the headache of making sure your system has the
correct IPtables rules, you don't have to worry about a second box
that's a dedicated firewall, etc.

I used roaring penguin for PPPOE when I didn't use a router (testing
VOIP), and it worked well. But then, if you have a linksys or whatever,
it's just a matter of plugging in your username and password...
