Tell me what what info you need and I'll do my best to provide it. I got as 
far as the Advanced Setup --> WAN menu and find I don't understand the setting 
options, E.G.:

VPI/VCI	|Con. ID |Category  |	Service  |Interface    |	Protocol  |
   8/35   |	1     |    UBR    | 	br_8_35|ppp_8_35_1|	PPPoE |  

I currently have 1500/256 ADSL with bigpond but plan to upgrade to ADSL2 when 
I get this sorted and find a ISP/plan that suits.
