If you can insert the proxy between the DSLAM and the DSL modem, then
that would work too.  The proxy will rewrite the packets so that the
DSL modem doesn't see the split command.

Note that in either case, you'll have to avoid loading the ftp conntrack
helper on the proxy machine for this to work, which may mean you'll need
to use the TransparentData option for frox (but try without it first).
